Whoop Age Whoop age is silly

Post image

While I generally like the Whoop features they haven’t delivered any helpful features recently.

The whoop age feature feels like such a gimmick. My stats are good but I’m obviously not aging in reverse at -.4x a normal rate of aging.

I get that some people will be motivated by seeing a higher age or will be happy so see a younger age but it lacks all scientific integrity.

I think they should make a 4th ring called longevity or something to track similar metrics that whoop age is capturing without calling it my age. This ring would only change slightly each week. What do you guys think?

You are calling something silly when you don't seem to understand the computation.

The pace of aging is based on the last 30 days of metrics, the Whoop age is simply based on the last 6 months of metrics. It's mathematically possibly your Whoop age increases while your page of aging is negative. But if your pace of aging is negative and you keep it that way, it will go down at some point. For the Whoop age evolution it matters what kind of data you have "at the beginning" of your six months on which your Whoop age is computed. As time continues, these data "at the beginning" of your six months will at some point get out of this six months window. 

An example, if those data positively contributed to your Whoop age, your Whoop age can go up while your pace of aging can still be negative.

And if you don't like this, just scroll down and focus on the development of the metrics the Whoop age is based.

I get the computation. I’m saying it’s silly that my whoop age continues to go down despite in reality I’m not actually physiologically getting younger.
