In this study, it was examined as the age of the best performance in individual disciplines in the Olympics developed from 1898 to 2014.The men showed that the age of the best performance remained unchanged for most disciplines.
In the women, on the other hand, the age of the best achievement has been increasing since 1980. The very interesting work can be found under https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26022534/
