I work in health care with a lot of seniors and from what I can see: keep moving and doing things. The ones who stop puttering around and doing stuff, rot.

this is not about doing things and more about being spent just doing day to day. I remember coming home fridays and getting myself ready and hitting dance clubs till early ams and repeating saturday with sleeping in and getting my shopping, housework, and paper work done in the afternoons. Now I spend every weekend keeping up on my personal paperwork and housework/shopping and maybe play a video game or watch shows and feel way more tired around it.
