Weigh In: What does it mean for an athlete to be in his/her prime?

I got into a discussion with someone about this and wanted other multiple and informed opinions--what does it mean to you for an athlete to be in his/her prime?

Its the period when they are still at their physical peak in terms of athleticism and they have enough experience to know how best to put it to use. I'd usually say its somewhere in the 24-29 range, but we are seeing more and more primes push into 31-32

It can also mean not just athleticism and strength but also skill wise but when they are best athletically also.
