  <name>75-min Z3/4 (Sweet Spot) Easy #04</name>
  <description>This workout builds intensity progressively through four distinct blocks. The stair-step approach helps you manage effort as fatigue sets in, improving your ability to produce power late in a ride. It's excellent for developing pacing awareness and mental toughness.</description>
