A woman's peak muscle mass and strength is typically reached between 30 and 35 years of age. This is when the body is generally at its healthiest and most efficient, with optimal bone density and muscle function. After this age, muscle power and performance decline slowly and linearly at first, then faster after age 65.
While strength may peak in the early 30s, women can continue to maintain strength and fitness levels with regular exercise throughout their lives. Strength training, in particular, can help to combat age-related muscle loss and improve overall health and well-being.
