"Your best" isn't a static point of excellence. It's not the pinnacle of your greatest moment. Your best is a flexible thing that changes depending on what you can manage at that moment. It's not about breaking your own records every day, it's about maintaining your abilities so that one day you might break a personal best.

Yeah it's awful. They went to prison for it in the 70s. Last I heard, the profits from their estate goes to a charity, I hope that's still the case.

Yeah they did. Reading about their torture methods and victims took an emotional toll on me. What they did is literally beyond my comprehension.

In a less fun turn of events, it's also what quite a few abusive parents do to their kids. Off the top of my head, Fred and Rose West had cages for their kids, and so did the authors David and Leigh Edddings.
