Due to low gravity and few pathogens, it might be something people will do for retirement. You can probably expand the time of healthy active years well into your 80/90ties that way.
I suspect they’d need to do some power lifting to avoid accelerated osteoporosis in the lower gravity, as the bones need to be put under strain and shock to stay healthy.
Depends on how active you are and how low the gravity is. A lower gravity like on Mars would be probably be more helpful than harmful for elderly people.

Maybe… or would your body simply rot away faster since you aren’t using it as much? I would be inclined to think the latter.
