What is that?
Could be as simple as taking a day off training and just going on a long walk or doing chores around the house. It's a rest day where you use your free time to do something vs taking a day off where you do no real physical activity.
My personal rest activity is disc golf.
Like what the other person said. Stay active, but don't do any formal (or at least stressful) exercise. Gentle NEAT is better than being sedentary (unless you're severely ill or injured).
