I was just wasting some time on Twitter when I found a tweet about youble.com which is like a virtual trainer/online gym in the cloud, so i went over and checked it out.
I may cancel my $30/mo Y membership...but, before I do that, I wanted to get feedback from anyone that may have tried or is currently using it.
Anyone?

Ive never heard of it.... but it looks pretty cool!
I would not cancel my membership, but i might pick this up some days!0 -
I've never heard of it either, but plan to check it out.0
-
On my way to check it out. I do more running around my neighborhoor than at the Y. I only keep my membership well because I paid 6 months up front and my little boys LOVE the play and learn0
-
It looks pretty cool, especially if you like taking classes.0
-
Id never heard of it either and just looked it up. Looks interesting enough 2 week free trial membership doesn't hurt either.0
-
i wanna say fitbie does the same thing....i think its free0
-
Thanks, you guys.
I haven't actually BEEN to the Y in months...It's way out of my way (read: across town) and we don't have but two gyms...well, three, if you count the chick gym.0 -
Trying the Free Trial now....0
-
I couldn't get the darn thing to load - maybe wifi isn't enough for this site??0
-
never heard of it before, but i think ill be giving it a try! looks like a fantastic program and WELL worth the small monthly fee! WAY cheaper than a gym, and soooo many options!0

I did ten minutes of a thirty minute workout last night and loved it. I am going to try an entire “On The Floor†class and see if I still love it, LOL...0

Alright. I can absolutely see where a WiFi might have a hard time keeping up with this. Will try it on my iPad and see. I do know that the first three attempts to work this today failed miserably, given the streaming kept choking and it would start from the beginning…again and again. However, once the router was rebooted (and my computer is hardwired to the router), there were no problems.
That said, if you have bad knees or can’t put weight directly on your knees (from, say, oh, I don’t know…falling or being hit by a large dog and being knocked to the ground?) the “On the Floor†class will NOT be for you. I had to call it a day, ten minutes in.
However, I went back to do the Cardio Dance, and there was a new lesson up, so I thought I would give that a go, and folks. I just have to tell you? I am a sweaty hot mess, my heart rate went to the moon and stayed at target for almost the entire thirty minutes, and I thought I was going to die before 30 minutes was up. I LOVED it! Yes, I cursed at the witch and flipped her off a few times, as well, and may have even told her I hated her, but I KNOW I did something right, and actually GOOD for myself. And the beauty of this? There was nobody here to laugh at me except my spouse, and he more laughed with me than at me, as he was kind of engaged in watching her boobs, LOL…
I will go back again this evening and see what kind of trouble I can get into with a strength training video.0 -
I totally read Youtube.com in your subject line.0
-
Well, this sucks. I got all involved and started really loving it and they shut the site down.0

The Youble site was just shut down. Sad.0
-
I searched on Youtube and found some Zumba classes - I bet there are others on there too.0
-
I just checked out the site and there is a letter saying that the site has closed down due to not enough people signing up and will refund $$$ to people who have signed up in the last 30 days! Yikes!0

Yeah I just saw this...o well!0 -
Just checked the site out and saw the same message. That was fast!! too bad. It sounds like they had a good idea going there!0
-
Site is shut down completely....0

When i read this post i thought you wrote youtube.com... What i was going to post was that there are lot's of varied exercise classes on there for free!!
So that is also a cheap option for working out at home!!! I've done some of these a couple of times -

Youble has shut down
It is with great sadness that I need to announce the shutting down of Youble.
We set out on a mission to bring fitness conveniently to the people in a fun, new, and fresh way. We have gotten great feedback from some of you that have enjoyed our product, and we were elated to hear every comment. With the business reality of the high cost of running Youble mixed with the low number of people actually signing up for paid accounts, we were lead to an incredibly hard decision.
It breaks my heart to announce this but we will shut down immediately. We will refund all Youble payments made during the last 30 days.
I want to thank you for joining this ride and taking a chance on us. I hope we brought you some fitness in your lives.
In Health,
Yu Hannah Kim0 -
sadness. i was gonna check it out0
