Like my self. I did not understand how hiruzen age could catch up with him and not onoki or danzo. Until finally UChiha shin said this.
In Naruto world as long as you are constantly training, developing, or experimenting to improve yourself. You will maintain strength or SLOWWWLY lose it.
Danzo - Experimented on his body and developed himself through testing to stay strong
Onoki - Tested Jutsu and constantly sought out ways to stay ahead of other nations/kages
Hiruzen - Sat around all day painting, writing, and looking at women. (Perfect Retirement) - Truly Peaceful Life
However Peace in itself is the worse thing a ninja can go through as it prevents you from truly honing your battleskills and abilities outside of science and testing.
It is due to this reasoning that Hiruzen became weak. IT was not cause of his age it was cause he simply stopped developing himself.
Ironically.. Hiruzen learning and developing all his jutsu in his prime was his downfall as he no longer felt the need to develop any longer at old age.
