Why Choose Online Workouts?
Online workouts became popular during the pandemic and have become a permanent alternative to gyms. Main advantages: work out anywhere and anytime, no need to travel to the gym, a huge workout library, and a lower price than a gym membership. The average platform price is €10-15/month, which is 2-3 times cheaper than a gym membership.
💡 There is data: People who use online platforms exercise more often because the "trip to the gym" barrier is removed (Journal of Medical Internet).
