This study aims to reveal the difference between opinions of individuals who do sports at home by watching videos on YouTube, which gained popularity all over the world before and during the pandemic. In order to examine the change in subject of "sports at home" before and during the pandemic, the most watched "exercise" themed video titled "Do This Everyday to Lose Weight" was selected as data source and user comments were categorized thematically. To analyze data set, Mozdeh Big Data Text Analysis (2020) was used to collect user comments from videos and the number of interactions of these comments via API connection. Qualitative content analysis was used to analyze user comments.
