Peak Functional Capacity is the highest achievable level of integrated physical and cognitive performance sustained by optimal endocrine output and metabolic efficiency under load. It reflects the zenith of an individual’s physiological capability.
Origin
This metric is borrowed from exercise physiology and occupational medicine, where maximizing output while minimizing systemic strain is the primary goal.
Mechanism
The capacity is governed by the efficiency of oxygen utilization, the responsiveness of the growth hormone axis to demand, and the speed at which the body clears metabolic byproducts like lactate.
