Abstract
⺠We examine relaxation in recreational, college, and professional athletes. ⺠Athletes perceive relaxation as relevant to performance. ⺠Professional athletes use more relaxation than college and recreational athletes. ⺠Key functions of relaxation include coping with anxiety and promoting recovery. ⺠Imagery and stretching are the most used types of relaxation.
