SP - 171 EP - 180 VL - 38 IS - 2 N2 - Use of existing records to study performance decline with age has been recommended by several writers.

Results indicated that the 400 meter run and the long jump events were most affected by advancing age among both male and female master athletes whereas in the area of throws, the event most affected was the javelin for men and the discus for women.
