Increasing your protein and making sure you're getting enough protein each day will also help with this.
The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.

So probably a little doing something with a little bit of resistance is probably a good idea. And making sure you're eating enough protein, that's really important for older people.
how important is dietary protein in that maintenance of muscle or loss of muscle and people who are going to go you know the wrong direction and i think the data is that it is quite important
the most important things would be um muscle mass protein intake
you must consume increasing amounts of protein and you must do strength training to ward off sarcopenia as you age
there's another condition of aging called sarcopenia which is the condition of uh muscle loss and that's that's a huge problem and there's really two ways to um in concert two ways to address that one is consuming enough protein and the other is doing enough resistance training
I think what hasn't been considered is this maintenance of muscle and mobility as we age that is in part driven by protein intake.
