The limiting factor on today is likely going to be the big number of Pull Ups in each round, right?  Just know going in, by the time you get to the pull ups, the body will be a bit fatigued.  That said, don’t look to muscle through the pull ups.  Rather, rely on good form and using shoulder engagement, hip extension and smooth cycling of reps to get through these.
