A fitness expert says several daily habits can help slow age-related muscle loss. Across outlets, the recommendations focus on strength training, adequate nutrition—particularly protein—and sleep, presented as practical steps people can include in their routines.

The New York Post and Fox News both describe the guidance as simple and actionable, attributing it to fitness coach Jacob Zemer. While they differ slightly in wording, both accounts emphasize maintaining muscle by combining regular resistance exercise with enough dietary protein and proper recovery. Both outlets frame the advice as targeted at the natural decline in muscle that can occur with aging, suggesting that consistent lifestyle choices may support muscle preservation.

Neither report cites specific study outcomes or provides detailed program timelines; instead, they summarize the expert’s general recommendations and lifestyle focus. The shared theme is that diet, exercise, and sleep work together to help maintain muscle as people get older.
