Either do the assistance exercises with weight (5 sets x 12-20 reps) OR do 5 sets of bodyweight exercises and go to failure each set. For example, 1) chin ups to FAILURE at 20 reps REST 2) chin ups to FAILURE at 15 reps REST 3) chin ups to FAILURE at 10 reps REST 4) chin ups to FAILURE at 8 reps REST 5) chin ups to FAILURE at 5 reps DONE Sorry for the confusion, you are correct.

It may take more than the prescribed number of sets to reach complete failure." What exactly do you mean? Shouldn't you be working to momentary muscular failure for all 5 sets of the body weight exercises? “For the assistance exercises, do 5 sets of 12-20 reps OR do 5 sets of bodyweight exercises (chin ups, push ups, dips, etc.) and go to failure each set.
