Usually, we think that we physically peak at around the age of 20. That is what most physical trainers, athletes but mainly the media are going to tell you and they are not wrong. It is just what they are used to seeing. Most gymnasts or Olympic athletes that we see usually reach their prime in their late teens or early twenties. Taking Usain Bolt as an example; he had been earning gold medals in several world championships ever since he was 15 but it was in the 2008 Beijing Olympics that he lit up the world stage when he broke the world record for the 100-meter sprint. Since then he has progressed on to break his own record and earn consecutive gold medals in the 2012 and 2016 Olympics, up until he was 30, after which he retired.
