It is thought to be (but not proven) to be a tradeoff between maximum achievable age and maximum achievable healthy age.
You need to consume less calories to have longest maximum achievable age (again, not proven in humans).
You need to move more to have longest achievable healthy age (this is much better documented).
Personally, I prefer to be healthier for longer even if it means I will live shorter in absolute terms.
I am running every day which hopefully will help me have denser and more robust bones and joints and tendons. And I am lifting weights so that I still have some muscle into old age when they inevitably start to shrink. Core muscles are important to prevent fragility as we age.
