Abstract
Throughout the aging process, individuals develop functional limitations and physical ability begins to diminish. In most sports, there is an age “sweet spot”, at which the combination of physical, technical and strategies abilities comes together. Research indicates that the fast twitch (FT) muscle fibre decline in number and function with age. The cells that support the repair and growth of skeleton muscles in response to exercise decline endurance type performance capacity also decline with aging. As they age, many athletes complain that the ability to recover from hard bouts of exercise diminishes ages athlete need longer to recover and adapt to a training stimulus, so exercise planning or schedule needs to change with age. With aging body fat constant increases and is redistributed from the periphery to the center of the body while fat free mass decreases.
