Great time ok the Franwich Mike!! That row time is something I should have aimed for instead of going all out and blowing up!!!

I knew after reading it last night I’d be in for a tough ride!
Thanks man!!
What is ‘1010’ ?
The tempo,

No pause
1 second up

What are out-and-backs? Cannot find on YouTube….
Just a short run to a designated point and back. Kind of like a shuttle run but with only one line.
are the sampson stretches performed facing or facing away form the fixed band point?
Sampson Stretch is facing the fixed band point.
