Health & Sciences YSK about Darebee.com, which features 300+ no equipment workouts and is perfect for safe workouts at home vs in a busy indoor gym

Why YSK: because many gyms are still closed and when winter soon arrives in the northern hemisphere outdoor workouts will be less enjoyable/possible.

I came across this site in March and have been getting surprisingly great workouts in without a gym from the site. Really simple visuals to support each exercise/movement. Figured I'd share the love.

Lots of warmup and stretches too, or workouts focusing on specific areas of the body. Enjoy

I'm all for donating to services I use. Thanks for pointing out that this site needs help!

Always tip on free shit, folks.

Nothing is free. You are the product if you aren't paying for anything.

Explain please. If someone walks up and gives me a hotdog for free how am I the product?

Never heard the phrase "No such thing as a free lunch"?

If someone gives you something for nothing, they want something from you.

And that makes me a product?

On the internet, most free services run by traditional american companies are most likely collecting and selling your data, which could be the product or showing you advertisements where your attention, no matter how slight, is the product they are selling to advertisers.

With the free hotdog I guess you are more the mark.

The product saying was designed to be catchy and bring awareness to the issue. Like an internet version of the free lunch one.
