  <name>90-min Z4 (Threshold) Easy #09</name>
  <description>This session builds fatigue resistance by starting with a long, sustained sweet spot effort before hitting a sharp threshold interval. By pre-fatiguing your muscles, you simulate the demands of the end of a long race or ride. This teaches your body to produce power even when you're not fresh.</description>
