I think I am safe from that for now. I do see old people that just live to sit on the couch and they decline fast. I don't watch much TV and don't just sit around

This is why HGH , IGF1 and testosterone will help.
According to the National Library of Medicine, sarcopenia is the progressive loss of muscle mass and strength that occurs with aging. It's a musculoskeletal disease that can lead to weakness, limited mobility, and increased risk of injury.
Causes of sarcopenia
Reduced muscle protein synthesis
Decreased stimulation or altered sensitivity to anabolic factors
Immobility
Decreased synthetic capacity of the muscle
Lower testosterone levels and IGF-1
Insulin resistance
Loss of motoneurons
Effects of sarcopenia
Increased risk of falls and fractures
Increased risk of disability
Increased risk of insulin resistance
Increased risk of type 2 diabetes, obesity, heart disease, and osteoporosis
Interventions for sarcopenia
Interventions that save muscle and improve mobility could help alleviate sarcopenia in the elderly
Increasing the proportion of energy from protein in the diet could result in better preservation of muscle mass
Oral administration of a high protein liquid nutritional supplement could increase muscle mass
