Athletes in sports requiring speed and power tend to peak by their mid-20s, those in endurance sports peak by their 40s, while those in tactical, low impact sports can still compete at elite level in their 50s. In general it has been said 25 is a males physical peak. After age 30, you begin to lose as much as 3% to 5% muscle per decade. Most men will lose about 30% of their muscle mass during their lifetimes.
