  <name>45-min Z4 (Threshold) Easy #07</name>
  <description>This workout challenges your recovery systems by progressively shortening the rest periods between intervals. As the session goes on, your body must adapt to clearing lactate more quickly. This is a mentally tough workout that builds resilience and improves your ability to recover from hard efforts.</description>
