Footballers are, for example, complaining about how they don't have enough rest as a result of playing too many games. That is an example of the need for athletes to have enough rest. When they rest well, they tend to perform better when it matters.

UEFA is making it very difficult for them to make most of their rest with so much improved match fixtures. So many players are not happy with the new format in the UEFA Champions League. It makes players exposed to injury. I heard they are talking about going on strike.
