You’re Capable of More Than You’ve Been Told

Our free trial gives you access to Adventurers for Life for 14 days with no credit card required.

Simply click the “Start Free Trial” button, create your account, and you’ll get immediate access to experience the program. Take the intake quiz, start your first workouts, and see how our step-by-step approach works.

At the end of your 14-day trial, you can choose to purchase a membership plan (yearly, quarterly, or monthly) to continue your access. There are no automatic charges—you decide what works best for you after experiencing the program.

The membership uses a progressive level system designed to meet you exactly where you are and guide you forward at your own pace. You’ll take an intake quiz to determine which level best matches your current abilities and pain levels.

The 6 Progressive Levels:

• Foundation: Building fundamental strength, balance, and movement patterns
• Building: Increasing endurance and expanding your movement capabilities
• Progressing: Advancing your strength and confidence with more challenging workouts
• Strengthening: Higher-level strength training and functional movement
• Advancing: Building power, stamina, and complex movement patterns
• Mastery: Lifelong strength maintenance with ongoing variation and challenges

Why we use these names instead of numbers: Every level builds comprehensive full-body strength, balance, and stamina—just at different intensities. The names reflect your progression rather than limiting you to specific activities. You’re not just “working on standing” or “working on stairs”—you’re building the strength for ALL activities throughout your entire journey.

How each level works: Each level contains 5 steps. Within each step, you’ll focus on a specific set of workouts (typically 2 workouts per step) and complete movement tests before advancing. This structure allows you to focus on just 2 workouts and 1-2 goals at a time—minimizing overwhelm and giving you very specific tasks to accomplish. Workouts progressively increase in difficulty as you move through the steps and levels.

You’ll stay in each step until you’ve completed the workouts 2-5 times each and passed the movement tests. Then you’ll move on to the next step with new, more challenging workouts. This ensures your body is truly ready before progressing.

Yes! This membership encompasses a full body approach. Even with lower extremity osteoarthritis, strengthening your upper body is vital to your success.

In Foundation and Building, most workouts are full body. Once you get into Progressing and Strengthening, upper body and lower body specific workouts are also included.

In an arthritis workout program, it is essential to take a full body approach instead of focusing just on one joint. The entire body is connected!

This membership is entirely self-paced. You will start at whichever level you tested in at and you will have access to one step at a time.

We do hold virtual events on varying topics that are set for certain dates. I will always upload the recording inside the membership under “Events and Resources” in case you miss it and cannot attend live.

None of the videos will expire as long as you are an active member. If the membership is cancelled, you will not be able to view past videos.

This arthritis workout program membership takes a full body approach.

I often find a common mistake people make is just focusing on one joint. Instead, the way the rest of your body moves directly impacts your other joints.

For example, the way your hips, lower and mid back move can impact how your knee moves. Your ankle can also play a direct role in your knee as well.

This program can be suitable if you have:

• Knee Osteoarthritis
• Hip Osteoarthritis
• Spine Osteoarthritis/Chronic Back Pain
• Degenerative Disc Disease
• Ankle Osteoarthritis
• Shoulder Osteoarthritis

Adventurers for Life contains both weight training and bodyweight movements. Progressing, Strengthening, and Advancing include higher level strength training and balance that are beneficial to both osteoarthritis and osteoporosis.

The membership also includes opportunities for kettlebell training too.

The good thing about these workouts is you can very easily increase the difficulty by using more weights or increasing the speed of certain movements.

This could absolutely help you get on the path to feel stronger and getting ideas on how to move your body safely.

The whole goal of this membership is to create a community to bring encouragement, support, and togetherness. There is a members-only Facebook Community where you can access other members, ask questions, share wins, and get motivated. Dr. Alyssa Kuhn, PT and team are available to answer any questions that come up for tech support, guidance inside the membership and other questions you may have along the way via email at info@keeptheadventurealive.com. There will also be opportunities for live Q&A sessions for you to get your questions answered while learning from others as well.

Most people in the membership complete the workouts 3-5 times per week. Ultimately it comes down to what works best for you. If you’re short on time, the workout library offers other options for shorter routines too.

This will depend on what level you start at. You can find all the equipment that is recommended in my Amazon store. Much of the equipment is the same as the Arthritis Adventure Blueprint aside from the longer resistance bands that are closed in the door. The equipment necessary is as follows:

• Dumbbells starting at ~1-5lbs (~1-3 kilos) as well as a heavier set of 8-10lbs (~4-6 kilos). You can also use soup cans or water bottles when getting started for Foundation through Progressing
• A sturdy, firm chair without wheels (patio chairs tend to work great for this)
• Small, loop resistance bands for Foundation through Advancing
• Resistance tubing that closes in the door for Progressing through Advancing (if you already have long resistance bands/tubing, you can also just get a small anchor that allows you to shut them in the door)
• Mini aerobic step or step stool (around 4 inches)

1. As a quarterly member, you can cancel anytime and there will be no more future charges. You’ll continue to have access to “Adventurers for Life” for the remainder of your membership. Prorated refunds are not available.
2. As an annual member, you may also cancel at any time. If you cancel within the first 30 days from purchase, you qualify for a prorated refund. To receive a refund, simply email info@keeptheadventurealive.com with your request.
3. After your first 30 days of your annual membership, you can cancel at any time to avoid automatic renewal and still have access until your membership expires. Prorated refunds are not available.

Yes! One of the key treatments to help build stronger bones is weight-bearing exercise, resistance training, and higher impact exercise.

One of the common problems I find with many other workouts out there to help osteoporosis is they can flare up joint pain if you also have osteoarthritis.

The workouts inside Adventurers for Life give you the best of both worlds, allowing you to get stronger without flaring up your joint pains.

Absolutely! Based upon your answers to the initial quiz, you will be placed in the best possible level for you to start. Foundation focuses on building fundamental strength and movement patterns. Building focuses on increasing endurance. Progressing addresses higher level strength.

For example, if you are placed in Building, you will also have the opportunity to go back to Foundation, if you’d like to start at the beginning.

There is great flexibility to ensure this is the best journey possible for you.

YES! An overwhelming yes. After a joint replacement, it is so incredibly important to rebuild strength and prevent compensations from arising. You went through an extensive process to find relief and have worked hard in recovery.

Adventurers for Life provides an excellent way to continue to build strength, balance, and stamina to open the doors to adventure. I often find if an exercise program isn’t followed after a major surgery like this one, you can risk the need for further surgeries, continued pain, and/or loss of range of motion.

Several members have been reimbursed through the fitness benefit that their Medicare Advantage Plan offers. Plans that have covered it so far include: Blue Cross Blue Shield Medicare Advantage (Medicare Blue PPO) and Aetna Medicare Gold Advantage (HMO) Plan. Please call the number on the back of your card to check your fitness benefit and the possibility of reimbursement.

There is potential for this membership to be covered by Health Savings Accounts/Flexible Spending Accounts but that is very dependent on what services they reimburse for. You may need a letter of medical necessity from your doctor to submit as well. Here is an example.
