In the sentence: 昨日いっぱい寝たから今日は元気いっぱいです。

I want to ask about the placement of いっぱい. I want to know if it is ok to say
いっぱい元気, instead of the other way around?

Is there a general rule to the placement of these modifiers?

placement of the adjective/adverb いっぱい
I think いっぱい元気です is unnatural. いっぱい and たくさん as an adverb isn't usually for
元気です but とても is usually used for it.

It is easy to understand to put an adverb right before the word which is
modified and it is important that you use adverbs befitted for words.

answer
いっぱい元気 is ungrammatical. On the other hand, すごい元気 is colloquial but perfectly
natural, just like "I'm super fine" (is "super" here an adverb??)

I think 元気一杯（いっぱい）should be understood as 元気で一杯 (lit. [I am] full of
power/cheerfulness.)

I think most dictionaries explain 一杯 as "full of" or "a lot of". It's less
vague than すごい which is "super" "great" or "awesome." So it isn't acceptable
to use it as an adverb.
