Rest claimed regularly (3)
I believe the answer is:
lie
'rest' is the definition.
(I know that rest is a kind of recline)
'claimed regularly' is the wordplay.
'regularly' indicates alternate letters (regularly take one letter, leave next etc.).
The alternating letters of 'claimed' are 'LIE'.
(Other definitions for lie that I've seen before include "Couch" , "Tell porkies" , "Equivocate" , "Be prostrate" , "False statement" .)
