Notes: 2:00 rest between the 5x10 work.  Today was a bit of "proof of concept" testing for the upcoming training block, and a chance to evaluate TMs.  I originally picked a conservative one, went with a higher one for today, then dropped it back to the conservative one for the BBB work, where it will stay.  Until I can get my blood pressure sorted, I think that's wise, as I'm just dealing with a lot of light headedness.  I had a fantastic chest pump when it was all said and done.  I'm taking the dips out of this day and including them in my daily work for now, as I saw great results doing that before, and it will help shorted this training day down.  I was having epic long sessions before, and I think reducing time and focusing on intensity will carry me further as far as putting on some quality mass goes.

Digging those high incline DB benches.  Getting 75s has been a boon for me.  Opened up a lot more options.  Hoping to be able to pick up the expansions to the Ironmasters soon enough.

Daily work is going to look like this for the foreseeable future

50 chins
50+ dips
25 push downs
50 pull aparts
30 GHRs
40 reverse hypers
20 standing ab wheels

On days where one of those movements are trained as part of the main work, they won't need to be included in the daily.  Those are minimums though: I tend to hit sets of chins whenever I walk through the garage, and may do something similar with dips as I go.  Recovery always drives method.
