Do you want me to link Conner Mantz’s Strava? Like, what is the point of dropping a single, random example here?
“Rest doesn’t preclude running” is a very simple, clear thought (followed by “recovery pace”, another very simple concept, well known in running). If you don’t want to respond to it because you don’t know anything about running, that’s fine, but maybe, you know, don’t jump into a conversation you’re not capable of participating in?
Would Strava provide the athlete's own reasons for why they chose each aspect of their training program?
"Usually I did not train at all during rest days. I rested both my mind and my body. However, if my friends wanted to go alpine skiing or go for a hike, I would join them. But I didn’t perform any intended active recovery. I tried to live a normal life."
“Rest with zero recovery running” is a very simple, clear thought.
