This is where, I think, technique and training methods enter the picture.

And psychology.
I read about it in usswim.org and I have seen age-group swimmers that are berated by coaches who think that swimming is akin to working.
So many age-group swimmers are repressed and don't express their physiological potential.
When older, some of them take charge of enjoying themselves at their developed potential and don't give a damn anymore about past restrictions .
