  <name>45-min Z4 (Threshold) Medium #08</name>
  <description>Build your endurance and mental fortitude with this threshold pyramid. The intervals increase in duration from 4 to 8 minutes before coming back down, challenging you to maintain power as fatigue sets in. This structure is excellent for developing pacing strategies and improving your time-to-exhaustion at threshold.</description>
