Rachael, rest between each set for the time indicated. The tempo (or speed of execution) is listed in seconds as follows: eccentric - isometric - concentric - isometric. Therefore, 2010 means to lower the weight for 2 seconds, no pause at the bottom, raise the weight for 1 second, and no pause at the top. When an "X" is designated, it means to raise the weight eXplosively.
