The Routine:

A2 - RDL (Reps - 12-14, Tempo - 2110)

Example of 3010 squat tempo:
3 second negative (eccentric phase)
0 second rest at bottom
1 second concentric
0 second rest at top
(Even though it says 0 second holding the contraction I will still always try to squeeze it. Just not for a whole second.)
