Physical peak age for men

Well yeah I drink less than I use to, because i'd fucking die if I kept drinking 30+ beers a night.
That was a dark dark time in my life switching to 40s because they were so much cheaper.
Just the thought makes me want to puke.

Another hardcore papa! You know you are probably right.
I used to partey with me mates 2-3 nights a week then my entire group of friends went to thailand for 2 fucking months and I stayed behind trying to get into a particular school (which I also did) but during these two months I didn't touch a single drop of alcohol and ate right, rested right and trained right. So after two months doing that I just couldn't party hard anymore.

This was 5 years ago

Haha, obviously I put on a few pounds (from 135lbs to 148), which isn't as much as I expected actually. Wasn't working out but was still pretty active. I had fun and glad I experienced that lifestyle, but I've cut right down now with the drinking (lost 8lbs so far) and fully expect the dreadful hangovers to return very soon.

I'm 28. Recently quit smoking and have done some good work at cutting back drinking.

Anyways, I can easily run a mile under 7 min, hike 14ers with ease. I'm getting pretty into rock climbing.

It's harder, but it is what it is I guess. Living at 8,000 ft elevation probably helps though.

Biologically speaking your body starts going downhill at 30

27 and naw man. sounds like you made the mistake of getting your shit together.

>turned 30 this year
>injuries take longer to heal
>recovery takes longer
>harder to cut fat
>progress has stalled

I'm sorry OP

>implying there isn't something else to blame for your troubles and gainless time.

(Please be something to blame besides age and nature)

I'm eating better and training harder than at any time in my life, plus I've been lifting with an actual coach this last year.

30 year olds have between 60-75% of the testosterone that 20 year olds have.

I'm 33. For the last year or so, my energy level during workouts has dropped drastically. Plus I'm noticeably more sore afterwards, even after stretching and joint limbering. I'm sure it's different for every person, but you're getting to that age. No point in worrying about it like a bitch. You just deal with it when it comes.
