I have been going back and forth on each of these products sites and then thought id just ask here what people seem to be using and what they think. Asking fellow Tr users what one they use and why they like it. Maybe this will bring a point together I had not thought of for using one over another. …

[image] Anyone using a Whoop? Equipment 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. …

Much cheaper than a Fenix 5 (or 6), I have a Polar Vantage V watch (originally purchased to provide running power from the wrist). I use their companion heart rate chest strap for the orthostatic test upon waking most mornings, which I have found to be excellent. Plus I like Polar’s Flow app. They …

I have the Oura ring. Overall I’m reasonably happy with it, however it does have some limitations: As far as I can tell, it does nothing during the day. It doesn’t track HR during the day, and doesn’t do any activity tracking during the day as far as I can tell. They want you to enter your activ…

To be honest the one thing keeping me from whop a little bit is the subsrictpion Just what I need another subscription lol I like that whoop seems to give insight into lot more data but the one thing I want more then anything else is sleep info Which it sounds is a big reason to go wit the ring

I went with the Whoop. I’ve had it about a month so far and I’m surprisingly happy with it. I went in pretty skeptical because I already had a new Apple Watch and was using the AutoSleep app. I’m not a good sleeper and my #1 goal was to improve there. I REALLY like that the Whoop analyzes my daily…

[image] Pbase: and then recommends a daily sleep goal I’m confused about a daily sleep goal. I go to bed between 10 and 10.30 and go to sleep. I may sleep 5 6 or 7 hours but don’t seem to have any control over how long I sleep. Mostly I wake up early sometimes (not often) late. Am I missing s…

You absolutely have control over how much you sleep. There are lots of books and techniques you can research if you don’t want to talk to a doctor. Sleep is the number one key to recovery. I have not read it yet, but I’ve heard Nate recommend the book, “Why We Sleep”. Search this forum for more pos…

Just like @Pbase I went with the Whoop. I’ve had it a since August now and I’ve noticed recently that as I’ve built up a backlog of data on myself, the Recovery score much more closely aligns to how I feel getting out of bed. The first month it was kind of give or take but then I crossed this thresh…

The Whoop thread referenced above has a lot of great information. I’ve been using Whoop this year and have found it very help. It’s not perfect but it really helps me understand fatigue and recovery better and constantly has been thinking about sleep. With my job it is really hard to keep up with…

[image] toyman: It doesn’t track HR during the day, and doesn’t do any activity tracking during the day as far as I can tell. They want you to enter your activity manually so they can track it If you wear the ring during exercise it will register activity. What it doesn’t do is try to figure…
