That's the "natural potential plateau" question - if we are to believe this theory, then it means that you can reach your absolute maximum potential in 10-15 years.

I am not so sure - I wonder if there are ways, in some fields, to keep getting better well into your 50s. For example, I don't really know of the ability to gain strength decreasing. So it seems like you could lift well into your 50s and end up stronger than a peak 25 year old.

I.e. an elite 25 year old wouldn't drop off in strength.

...I just answered my own question: https://torokhtiy.com/blogs/warm-body-cold-mind/weightliftin...

Seems like 35 is where Olympic weight lifters stop winning medals. There is also this: "Harvard University says the average man loses up to 5 percent of muscle mass every decade, starting at age 30; most men lose about 30 percent of muscle mass as they age."

Well, I guess I am going to have to stick with the guy who posted "older people just stop giving a " to comfort myself about getting old.
