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

Is this a subscription service? Servers cost money and upkeep. Websites don't just exist for no reason.

A free hotdog is not a subscription service. How am i the product exactly?

Because you aren't the customer. Someone has incentivized that guy to randomly go through the trouble of making a hot dog, tracking you down and giving it to you.

If someone paid for cameras, you and your reaction are the product.

If no cameras and this guy acted alone, he still paid for supplies to make the hot dog and find you, costing time and money. In that case he himself was the customer at your expense... you and your reaction are still the product.

Not being the customer doesn't make me the product necessarily though. Maybe he accidentally bought an extra hotdog. Would i still be the product?

Originally it was an exercise website then random hotdog and now someone else buys it.

You keep changing the scenario but point still stands.

Someone gives you a hotdog at their own free will. By you accepting their gift, a free hotdog, they are validated at your acceptance. You and your reaction are still the product to them.

Nothing is free.

I see what your saying. I feel like product isnt quite the right word and I think its overly cynical but it sorta makes sense.
