I really don't do anything fancy. I have 4 reedy 6100s and they mostly stay in whatever they were ran in last. Practice I just charge/run. On a small race day I just recharge after I run no cycling. When I run mod I also often charge to only 4.17/cell because that 1st min of high voltage isnt consistent for mod. At the end of the day I make sure the cells are 3.75-3.85v/ea. Some times all I need to do is hit "balance only" on my Icharger 4010. Thin packs I make sure they are 3.85/cell since they are lower capacity.
At bigger races if I run stock I'll do 20 or 40a discharge cycling and 40a charging. Or like I said earlier 40a discharging and 20a charging.
Honestly as long as you don't go out of voltage range (3.5-4.2/4.35v) and dont store in hot areas like Roelof said. Modern lipos are awesome and are quite durable.
