Just watched, he wore it both on wrist and on his bicep (with an old whoop strap). For the wrist the heart rate in various exercises was good to very good (correlation above 0.9 in all cases with reference device). On the bicep it was the best or among the best he's ever tested (0.97-1.0 correlation

Only just started my journey, I was drinking every night not a massive amount but 7 days a week it soon adds up. I’ve noticed my sleep is much better. I’ve got a whoop strap and my sleep rating an recovery have both jumped since I’ve cut down on alcohol. Another change is my resting heart rate is lo

Yes yes yes a 1000 times yes. I used to work out from 2000-2130 with the last 45 mins being cardio. I too used to "sleep" normally or so I thought. But since I got a whoop band I realised that my quality of sleep is piss poor. While my H/R goes down to normal from HIIT in 15 mins resting HR at night

The power zone programs (discover, build, peak) seem to me to be designed to be your main priority during that block of training. I don't think it's particularly realistic to do a 4 day split like what you're describing at the same time. Not one of the programs, but all of Wilpers' PZ rides this yea

Get a whoop strap and let it show you how much shittier everything is on the days you drink.

I'm pleasantly surprised at how similar both were.

The manhattan chart of heart rate is very similar, particularly the peaks and lows.

The heart rate zones use different metrics, but allowing for that (i.e. zone 3 for Garmin is a mix of Zone 1 and 2 for Whoop) they seem to correlate quite well.

FWIW: I wear a Whoop (optical HR monitor) on my upper arm 24/7. I barely notice it. For 98% of my rides, I just use the data from the whoop strap instead of my garmin chest strap. I have compared the 2 of them multiple times by double recording and the whoop is usually 99% in-line with the garmin. A

For a scientist who's into fitness, a few ideas that might land well: Strava subscription ($80/year) - great for tracking walks/jogs and joining challenges. Adds a social/gamification element to his exercise routine. Nebula + CuriosityStream bundle ($70/year) - way better than just CuriosityStream

I’m not dealing with fatigue, but I also had a bunch of bloodwork come back as “normal.” I knew something was up so I went to a holistic hormone specialist and finally I got the answers I was looking for. In your case though. I’d probably start with a sleep study. Or maybe even before that, you coul

2 year whoop user converted to Helio. Whoop is very useful in the beginning for people who are new to trackers and need help making lifestyle changes but once I understood how to manage my HRV, RHR and sleep cycles I felt like I was paying for a load of stuff I didn't need. Hello covers all that I w
