  <name>90-min Z3 (Tempo) Pushing #03</name>
  <description>This workout trains your ability to push harder on tired legs by increasing intensity as the interval duration decreases. It simulates the final stages of a race where a sharp effort is required. This builds fatigue resistance and improves your capacity to buffer lactate at higher outputs.</description>
