at 57 yo I'm definitely not stronger but my endurance is better. Also, at least rock climbing I can usually work around a problem better than just brute forcing my way through it. Also, my right shoulder has a say in any impulse to brute force a move.

But, you can get stronger with age I think it's the attaching joints and ligaments that seem to go before the muscles do. Certainly I noticed that hitting around 45.

Oh, and a third note. I used to run 5 miles a day, then 3 then 3 miles three days a week. Now I have early stage arthritis setting into my feet. The doctor told me this may be due to micro fractures in my feet from so much running. So there's that.
