# Adding videos to workouts

# Adding videos to workouts
How to add a video / live stream from YouTube, Vimeo, or other platforms to your created workouts.
---

#### Placing a video

There is a whole section where the creating of a workout is explained. You can find it [here](https://help.wod.guru/en/article/workout-programming-1iwefta/).


If you know how to create one now, we can move on to placing a video there, it's quite simple :$  We have to put a link/code to the video in the workout description:

A member will see it like this:

|| Note: the link/code should be in a new line

Like this:

```Workout
content
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxtfJ-cB70I
Workout content
```

And not like this::

```Workout
content https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxtfJ-cB70I
Workout content
```

#### Available platforms

For live streams you can use any platform, the most popular are: 

### YouTube 
*(In my opinion the best/the easiest for the beginning)*

    **Advantages**:
*  free
*  easy to use
*  live stream available
  ** Disadvantages:**
* live streaming from the phone only when you have 1000 subscribers on your channel. If not, only from a computer. 
* a link to videos/live streams is not protected and can be seen by anyone

### Vimeo

    **Advantages:**
* you can limit viewing video/live stream only to WodGuru - it can't be seen from any other places, a member can't share it with friends
   ** Disadvantages:**
* live stream is expensive - you need a premium subscription for a year, there is no possibility to buy it for a month

### Facebook live

A popular option is live streams on Facebook, but we can't integrate it with WodGuru, because live streams can't be "pulled" from Facebook. 

A solution may be inviting members to a Facebook group where we will share our live streams. In this case, we have to remember about revoking their access when their membership expires, which can be inconvenient.  

   **Advantages**:
* easy, free live stream
 ** Disadvantages:**
* cannot integrate with WodGuru, lots of manual work

### Zoom

Zoom is a cool option for one on one sessions or meetings in small groups. Zoom also doesn't let to add the player directly to WodGuru, but you can share the link, so a member can easily join the meeting.

   **Advantages**:
*  free (but not sure if there are any limits)
*  allows the coach to interact with members
    **Disadvantages**:
*  doesn't work well for a bigger groups
*  you can't insert the player into WodGuru, you can only share a link to the meeting
