That's the entire hard part haha. It can be different for everyone. I'm underweight, so what my metrics would be would look very different from someone who's overweight or is training for an athletic competition.
1.) Define what you want to get out of it and why you're doing something
2.) Define what would "success" look like quantitatively if you got what you wanted
The good thing is YOU get to define what that looks like for you.
As for being realistic, you won't really know til you start tracking, and you can always adjust mid-quarter or when you go to create new OKRs. I go by the rule that 70% met is a win.
I'd definitely take a look at your life as a whole and see which kind of season you're in -- if you're really busy with work, it's probably not a great time to also do something intensely challenging for the first time unless you have the extra support to keep up with it.

Do you recall the most recent time you established a personal goal for yourself? How did you monitor your progress, and what changes did you make?
