Another great review thanks Shervin!

[@Stringbean]

I can get behind a monthly subscription to help support the technology, but would rather pay for the strap followed by a 5-10$ subscription plan. I think it's the future, because it's simplistic and exactly what we all want. Data without all the extra nonsense. I feel like this sort of technology will be cheaper in the future, and is expensive now because of it being the only one of it's kind.

[@ajnazatahm]

Agreed, I'd be fine paying under $100 for a basic strap, and pay no more than $15/mo

[@Erik-leChef]

I appreciate your videos man, I got a whoop after watching a couple of your prior uploads. I've had an apple watch for over a year & I'm about 5 days in with my whoop! Using both as you mentioned you have done

[@ShervinShares]

Love that! How do you hope the whoop will change your behavior? I think the journal feature is the most powerful one for behavior change

[@darcygoettling]

I'll give the whoop a try for a month or two. I'm hoping it can help me discover habits that can be negative for me, since I've been dealing with my health for months now and the doctors can't find anything, I want to take matter in my own hands. Thank you for the discount and your videos, they are really helpful!

[@BijanIzadi]

Heck yeah! I use both the apple watch and the whoop too!

[@Greenpigeon52]

Love my whoop. My biggest wish is that it had some led lights on it somewhere so I can see what heart rate zone I’m in quickly when I’m running vs having to slow down enough to pull my phone out and check

[@ShervinShares]

Interesting idea! It has LED lights for battery life. But that’s it

[@rrggray]

The Whoop is deeper than most, so if you love data and doing deep dives then it's a good fit for you. Also, if you want to wear a non smart watch it's good. The subscriptions sucks for a lot of people but if you get 2 years it works out at $180 a year and with this I ditched my Athlytic and Freeletics apps which were about $150 a year combined. Buy the tracker that works for you because if it actually helps you live a better and healthier life then the price is irrelevant, I mean, what price would you put on living a few years longer and being mobile in those years? AW, Garmin, Whoop all work well.

[@s.l.1147]

The good thing is, that you can get 95% of the functionality of a Whoop without the subscription model. Apps like Chipr or Athlytic provide the same metrics for a fraction of the cost of a whoop, just by using the data from your Apple Watch.

[@TerraVFX]

[@chasingshangrila]

I have been able to gain a few pounds of muscle due to the strain tracking on my whoop. I guess I was overtraining before. My sleep has greatly improved since wearing the device. I have been more aware of several daily routines to improve it. Recently, I had 12 days in a row with 100% sleep. I can tell you that my device is pretty accurate. I go to bed at 11 for example and when I feel sleepy I always look at the time so more or less 5-10 min to fall asleep. Waking up it’s accurate most of the days and if it’s not it’s just 2-4 min difference. For those reasons I love my whoop strap. Mostly wear it in my wrist but will try the bicep strap. Thanks!

[@ThatGuyInVegas]

Hi Shervin, does the Whoop 4 have a haptic alert for when you sit too long? I work behind a computer all day and need something to tell me when I've been sitting there too long. Thanks!

Everyone is talking about subscription model. Let’s say you pay 299 for 2 years. You get latest and greatest throughout. Apple Watch, 350 dollars and after 2-3 years you upgrade. It’s more or less, the same thing.

[@anthonyholland8549]

$48 USD a month makes the Apple Watch Ultra look thrifty! PS love that you have the Studio Display and an iPhone mini: brother from another mother :P Question: If the iPhone is a 13 mini, have you had any problems with reception? I'm on the verge of sending mine back and would like to know if my specific one is a lemon or if all of the 13 minis struggle with reception when on "low bars" (Galaxy S10 performs perfectly in the same spots where the mini has trouble).

In my experience, over the last 6 or so months it’s kept pace with my Apple Watch no matter if it’s on my wrist, my shirt, or my boxers. They have a bicep band for even better accuracy, but to be honest I haven’t seen much of a difference.

[@Neonstacks]

If you have hairy arms it throws the readings off. I’ve actually had to shave a small square in my forearm for it but it’s dead accurate now

[@fairygodbrother]

I used the whoop this month compared to a £35 apple watch rip off chinese copy from amazon. It showed the same calories burnt in my workout for 45 mins this morning and similar hear rate. I think the woop is a pretty awful rip off its just the form factor thats decent. Back to Garmin thankfully the whoop was a free trial

[@JessikahElise]

I liked the WHOOP but it did not track my sleep accurately. If I woke up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom or whatever reason then went back to bed it wouldn’t record the second half of my sleep so I stopped using it. I find my Apple Watch and fitbit track my sleep more accurately.

[@k.nilsson]

I love the concept and data from Whoop (the marketing helps too). Something no one seems to talk about is the EMF radiation that Whoop has. You wear this device on your skin 24/7 and it doesn’t have a flight mode (compared to other wearables). The Oura Ring provides similar data and has much lower EMF radiation. I know these are still low levels for humans, but the lack of a flight mode is a deal-breaker for me personally. However, I would love to test Whoop when they add it. Love your content and your reviews, cheers from Sweden.

[@vini20900]

Worries about EMF emissions are completely misplaced. EMF of devices like wearables, smartphones etc are not ionizing, don't have enough energy within the radiation to be harmful for cells. There has never been scientific work to show that radiation of that kind is dangerous in any way. none whatsoever
