  <name>75-min Z5 (VO2 Max) Medium #09</name>
  <description>This workout uses ramped intervals to challenge your entire aerobic power spectrum within each effort. By starting at the bottom of the zone and ramping to the top, you'll engage different muscle fibers and improve your ability to accelerate and sustain power through the VO2 max range. This is great for developing climbing and attacking power.</description>
