I noticed they moved from a single purchase price to a monthly subscription that includes the hardware. I’ve been using HRV4Training and I’ve been finding it very useful so far, so I’m curious if anyone out there is using Whoop.

I wear mine on the wrist but with the sensor on the inside. I’ve just always worn watches that way.

I get inaccurate readings when wearing my Whoop on my wrist when cycling (or anything else where my arm/wrist was mining a ton or getting bounced around. I went back to wearing a Garmin Tickr HR strap on rides and also eventually got a Whoop bicep strap. I’ve done many rides with both the Tickr sta…

[image] thesupermarket: I don’t know why it isn’t the default way of using whoop rather than something I have to buy later. My cynical theory is that it’s easier to sell accessories for a wrist band that is visible as opposed to a bicep band that would typically not be visible.

Whoop has currently a 1 Month Free Trial. I’m a Garmin Fenix user and never cared for a device subscription that I have to commit to for 6 months or longer. So when I saw the 1 Month Free Trial I jumped on it because I wanted to compare it to my Body Battery data. Turns out you have to pay 12€ for s…

Ok, so I have the impression based on the article that it will offer personalized responses based on your actual WHOOP data. Will be curious to try it out and see how well it can actually deliver against the promise.

I used it for about 3 years and in the mean time other devices have come out that are a better fit for me. It was really interesting to see what people were seeing with COVID. I think that’s where they got a big membership push. I think it’s Okay if you think the $30 is worth it and you don’t have…

I began the transition from Whoop to Vivosmart 5. I will not be renewing Whoop in October. What it does is overall positive, the price however is a big negative since the combo of a Vivosmart and Edge computer checks all the boxes I’m concerned about.
