I was so sold on the idea and typed the address into the browser and found it didn't work, but I still ended up at whoop. Tried looking how to buy and all I could see was sign up. Curious I clicked on it and discovered it is heaps per month. So dissapointed! Way too expensive and I'm not happy to pay ongoing. I thought it would be like buying a Garmin heart rate monitor or something.
I've had mine for about 45 days and I'm loving it. I'm working full time, navigating a complicated family life and training for gravel races (at 47). It's been very beneficial so far and I can't wait to get more data compiled. I signed up for the 4.0 and Ann waiting patiently.
Thinking about getting as well with similar lifestyle. Do I need subscribe and pay a fee to use this or it’s free after purchasing the product?
@@samuraioodon you pay a subscription only- not for the device.
I have one on the way! Excited!
Not a big fan of hardware that requires an ongoing membership i would rather pay more upfront so i can own the device.
I miss the days where not everything was a subscription service. Hard pass here.
@@redeux The only way to stop this development is to consequently not buy those hard- and software.
have to agree here...with so many free apps and activity trackers the subscription kills it right away for me...i do like it though.
This is exactly why I don't have strava premium anymore. why? because I bought an element bolt and I can use the wahoo app to see all my data and zones etc. I do kind of miss live segments a little though.
@@wrxzboost I know you posted 3 months ago but I'm interested in the whoop and not happy with the subscription service but I'm not aware of any other device that does what whoop does as well as it does it and definitely no free apps that come close to its metrics
Thank you Phil and Frank! Lots of USEFUL information on what appears to be a very interesting product. Keep it up! 👍
Cool video! I saw this come up on GCN, and it had me at heart function (HRV). Coming from CHF 6 years ago, this peaked my interest as dying isnt fun and doctors dont want to take you on as a patient. I cycle daily and hard on weekends. I am glad to have HRV and recovery data as verification on how i feel. The price is steep and I am still learning this tool (only had it 24 days so far).
What's the promo code doing?? I added it and it changed nothing
I have been using WHOOP for about 4 months and have been an endurance athlete for more than 30 years (swim, bike, run, lift weights, backpacking, skiing). The device has been very helpful to me in understanding how my body works. I am over 60 years old and retirement has allowed me to get in the best shape of my life. More time to ride especially. Using those big leg muscles will put me into the red. However, swimming with no paddles or big fins has resulted in great HRV readings the following day on several occasions. Must be using those smaller muscles and being in a supported environment that makes a difference. The folks at WHOOP are very responsive to my questions and I appreciate that. The cost of the service is an investment in quality of life and that is priceless.
Awesome Craig!
Good for you! I am 56 and waiting for my Whoop to arrive. Looking forward to all the data and the ability to improve my performance!
Good post, thks 👍
Code didn‘t work. I‘m from Germany!
Thanks for this vid Phil, b/c I been thinking of getting a Whoop. Of all the vids out there this one has been the most technically informative. However, could you please explain what it is really like to practically live with the Whoop? Are you supposed to wear it ALL THE TIME? A you supposed to shower with it or miss that key 10 minutes of HR data after a ride? If so, how do you keep the fabric strap clean and prevent it from getting stinky? It's a real question b/c I live in a tropical (very hot and humid) environment and when cycling the sweat just runs down the arms like rivers. Will wearing it in the shower with soap keep it from getting stinky like my cycling gloves? In this environment its a serious practical question.
You mentioned this promo in a more recent video. Was it only for US, or was it limited time?
The nap is a telltale sign. Not faultless of course but it's generally a good idea.
So correct me if I'm wrong. Whoop does only one thing which other devices like Garmin, Polar etc don't do and it is going to be summarizing all information from your body and giving it to you. Is that right? I like the idea, but I dont like keep paying for that every single month... 18 month is 324. Another 18 month another 324. It doesn't look much, but still you have to pay every single month. I dont know. But I really like the whole idea. Today I went to my training and felt so bad, but I kept going.
The analysis and tracking is what you pay for. Just another tool like you might pay monthly coaching or strava Summit.
What about weightlifting. If I'm in the red and that day my workout plan calls for weightlifting at heavy load. Should I skip? Go for it? ...
every solid review on whoop states the HR monitor isn't close to accurate, and all the data it uses is based off of the HR....i was interested but not sold yet, maybe the 4.0 will improve?
It’s so much more accurate than my garmin and that’s much more than Apple Watch.
Im looking into getting a Whoop. In theory it sounds like a good idea, its easy to get an enthusiastic athlete to train, recovery always seems to be a guessing game. The only thing is ive read a lot from top coaches that to reach your potential there are times you need to overtrain followed by recovery, im wondering will Whoop discourage this? Now Phil stop interrupting .
When is Glue going to make a come back? Would love to see Phil strungout in the Hollywood hills going through celebrities bins high.
Great video you guys! I ordered the whoop a couple weeks ago and I'm very excited to use it with my training program. One thing I couldn't find an answer to on the whoop site was whether or not the whoop program can grant access permissions to a coach on training peaks or if there was a way to get recovery status sent over to Xert. If it can then a human coach or the Xert algorithm could factor whoop data into a training program on the fly. I thought I'd ask here since both of you guys seem to have a good amount of experience with the whoop system. Thanks in advance!
It does link to TP, so if your coach is connected there they should have access
You should see if you can contact Dee Du, she's the ultimate authority on Whoop.
How can the Apple Watch not have this functionality?!
Cycle Haven Banks just wait until a company like Apple buys whoop
I would guess the Apple Watch is designed more for the broader public and at some point the designers realized that a workout recovery function was less valued by the broader public health than some of the other functions like photo viewing and voice to text stuff. I guess we can take pride in the fact that we are exceptional in our desire for highly specific and detailed recovery data. Yeah health conscious people!
Wasn't really a discount because they give you the same discount of $30 when you type in your email address.on join now. Guess they use it to keep up with the referrels
alex honnold i heard on a whoop podcast had a really extreme rem level, which they took as fact. but when reviewing other videos the whoop simply mispresented the sleep as rem instead of deep.
Love your videos, but looks like there's a problem with your Whoop links. whoop.com/philgaimon & whoop.com/philsentme didn't work!
Oops! Well whoop.com the PHILSENTME code works.
@@worstretirementever Does not work on the EU part of whoop.com it seems
6:00 damn
If the price is an issue, then this device isn't for you. Money isn't an issue when health is in question.
Too expensive!! Subscriptions, sick of subscribtions. Everything is subscription, over it.
the whoop is a game changer
1. "Lady" it is time for a haircut :-) , 2. how is this different from top end Garmin or Polar watch? 3. I think it is a matter of time till some big "fitness company" buys them or their know how
No need to be mean. : (
im also not a big fan of hardware thats collecting our data and keeping it 24/7
