They view it as an annoying chore to minimize but recognize that at their level of output, the minimum necessary just to function is higher than many losers idea of maximal. They are not obsessive or exhibitionist about it. Nor PR strivers. They hire coaches to obsess.

I consider myself a good judge of highly effective. It's a fairly narrow zone and not really subjective. If you're on this thread, I doubt you are.

There are no metrics. It's mainly about learning the limits of your own body, and situation awareness of when/where your main work causes you to hit a bodily limit, and working on that bottleneck. Metrics are for athletes and body fetishists.

Ah if you're an athlete, normal considerations don't apply. I understood the original question to be about people whose domain where they need to be highly effective is something other than athletic performance.

Didn't want to go pro as an athlete? :D If fitness is a ~5-hour-a-week hobby for you, and you know what you're doing there, it almost certainly isn't likely to be your life effectiveness bottleneck except as a potential overinvestment risk.

The interesting effect is "good arrested development"... when you hit a point where the marginal effort in removing the next bottleneck is higher than the marginal residual life value of removing it. No point exercising the day before you die for example.
