I thought 74 bpm was a good RHR but i’m looking at posts of people saying there’s is 40 and that 60-70 is high. Am I missing something ?? This is my 2nd day using whoop. my resting heart rate typically sits at 75.
For me Whoop has been going down hill since the last update. Getting weird stats and AI has been so wired lately and now this. Started feeling sick Saturday and have felt like shit every day since waking up feeling terrible. 3 of those days reflect that and then right in the middle is a random 92 score and that day I felt the worst. Doesn’t not make since to me
Hey everyone,
I’m considering using Goose with WHOOP 5.0 on iPhone, but I’m not sure if it still works properly with the latest WHOOP updates.
Can anyone confirm whether Goose still works with WHOOP 5.0 on iOS?
Also, if Goose no longer works (or isn’t worth using), are there any good alternatives that can pull WHOOP data and provide accurate/useful calculations and insights, rather than just displaying the basic WHOOP metrics?
Ideally looking for something with good recovery, strain, sleep, HRV, trends, and other useful calculations.
Would love to hear what people are currently using and whether you’d recommend it.
Thanks!
What is actually meant to happen in the behaviour insights section? I have logged every single day since getting my whoop alcohol and caffeine hoping to see some sort of trend but I have nothing.
I have now started adding in more as I am interested but they're still not working. Help pls 🙏🏼
£23:00 what an amazing product (apart from the not straight metal bar and having the w on it ..(they are replacing it so thats fine, the quality apart from that is outstanding! So comfortable and solid, the whoop doesn't move at all amd their is absolutely no way of this band or whoop falling off ! Tbh best band i have ever had on whoop.
Does anyone else noticed that their strain is significantly lower in past recent days? I had at least 4h of walking yesterday yet my total strain stayed at 4.4… it was never THAT low even on my reset day, and I train 6days a week so avg is around 15.
My family subscription ends next months and I'm really considiering g fitbit - without $200 subscription is a nobrainer BUT whoop age / pace is so sick that only this keeps me thinking. I'm not a professional athelete just doing healthy training to keep fit. Discussed with my wife and she also in doubt due to the same reason.
Is anyone in this sub who already switched and misses the age/pace as the major compelling metric?
UPD: I'm not in the apple ecosystem.
Hi everyone,
This is the third time I've signed up for a free trial month with Whoop. I think Whoop is really great, but it's always been too expensive for me. Now I'm thinking about renewing my subscription for a year because Whoop really motivates me to work out.
However, there’s a lot of competition right now, and most of them are cheaper. (Garmin Cirqa, Fitbit Air, Amazfit Helio)
I think the Whoop app is by far the best at keeping me motivated. I’ve also tried the Bevel app on my smartwatch, but found it a bit more confusing and less motivating than Whoop.
For me, the main reason to buy Whoop is therefore how good the app is specifically, how well it analyzes the data (I haven’t seen anything better than Whoop so far). It’s less about how accurately the bands measure; I think they’re all relatively similar in that regard.
For example, I find the Body Battery feature from Garmin/Bevel completely unnecessary.
So I’d love to hear your thoughts, since I’m having a really hard time deciding if one of the alternatives might be a better fit for me especially when it comes to cost.
What I love at whoop:
- to see my recovery
- Track my workouts and see my strain → motivates me to do more
- tracking my naps and see how much i should sleep
- See how my training impacts my Whoopage
- To the how my trainign improves HRV Rand RHF>
- Automatic tracking of activites (works well for me with whoop)
Have you tried any of the alternatives yet?
Have you maybe even switched away from Whoop?
Does any of the alternatives have an app or data analysis that’s just as good?
Whould you say Whoop is still the best, and worth the money?
i just got a whoop yesterday and my recovery was 29% and my HRV is 35. Are these numbers bad or is it too early to tell since it’s only 1 day of data ?
Will Whoop add Treadmill as an activity in the future? I do Treadmill but I always save it as other.
In the start I walk, then I jog then I speed it up towards the end.... So I can't pick one of the options.
I just woke up how is my recovery this bad yet i feel fine.
Yesterday my recovery was 94 percent and my strain was about 18.
Is there anything i need to know
I got my first whoop in December 2017. A lot has changed since then.
I just made a post about my RHR (second day with whoop) and a lot of people are saying 74 RHR is really high for my age (21). I understand it’s a bit high but I think saying really high and that I should talk to a doctor is a bit dramatic. Am I wrong? When I research the normal RHR levels, everywhere says between 60-100 is a good range, putting my 74 at a fair spot.
A few things I left out - I never work out, I drink a fair amount, use nicotine/tobacco a decent amount, and do stimulant drugs when i’m drinking sometimes. I haven’t drank since saturday night other than 3 beers on monday. So if I fixed these bad habits, would I be sitting pretty nice ? Also I went to the doctor yesterday and they measured my blood pressure at 131/79. Which i know is a bit high but I think may be from just being nervous about taking it.
Edit: (I also have a cpap for sleep apnea, but don’t use it every night)
Yesterday I also started the peptides semax and selank and that was my first day with whoop aswell, so that could have a part to play in it
Hi! Just got my whoop peak 5.0 today. Any tips??? so i can start using it right
It has been over a year since Whoop rolled out Advanced Labs, and international users are still stuck looking at the exact same placeholder screen:
"Purchase of Advanced Labs tests is currently only available in the United States but will be launching in other regions in the future. You're on the waitlist."
Over a year later, "in the future" has led nowhere.
International members pay the exact same subscription fee as US customers, often more after factoring in currency exchange and local VAT. Yet a major component of the platform's biomarker tracking remains geoblocked with zero updates or clear roll-out dates.
At this point, anyone outside the US is paying 100% of the membership cost for a stripped-down experience, effectively subsidizing features we aren't even allowed to purchase.
Has Whoop given any concrete timeline for international availability, or are non-US members simply stuck paying full price for half the ecosystem indefinitely?
Seems that nowadays it keeps making mistakes in the most basic tasks. Today, it didn’t even bother to actually check the details of my run for the feedback it gave me about it – kind of missing the whole point of the analysis.
I know how the AI can be, using it every day at work for software development. I just hope Whoop hasn’t toned down the effort to low- because that is when I seriously start considering the alternatives.
I’ve loved my Whoop for many years, hopefully this will get better soon!
(This was a short run so not hard in that sense. But the coach claimed I mostly stayed in zones 1-2 during the run, which is what I questioned. 🤯)
Why is my stress over 4 hours every day. I have a day or two in a month with 2 hours day stress.
Is this inflammation or just mental stress?
