    Hey Andy... just got the book in the mail friday and have been ripping through it all weekend. One thing that jumps out at me so far though is that the book discusses the importance of assistance work for intermediate lifters, but then doesn't really include examples of it in the TM templates. Is this bc assistance work has to be tailored to the needs of individual trainees?

    Secondly, there is almost no mention of the use of weighted dips as assistance. Why is that?

    High volume assistance work is better suited to split routines.

    I think we included dips in some of the example programs.
