  <name>75-min Z5 (VO2 Max) Easy #09</name>
  <description>This session uses ramped intervals to challenge your VO2max system across a range of outputs. Each 3-minute effort builds from 105% to 120% FTP, forcing your body to adapt to increasing intensity. This is excellent for improving your ability to surge at the end of a hard effort.</description>
