Apple provides guidance about optimizing battery life in this article --> About Mac notebook batteries
In my experience it's best to fully charge, then run on battery power until you are at or below 10% charge, then fully recharge.

Keep it cool. Place your laptop atop a laptop cooler.
Leaving it plugged in, it will most certainly overheat - once charged let it stay unplugged.
Avoid, battery damage by keeping your Mac out of the corner, and out of sunlight.
Sometimes batteries can corrode, so keep an good eye on it.
