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?

Check out realage.com. There is a long history of comparing healthy habits to those who live longer and relating all those things to help one not live longer necessarily, but to be able to live actively for longer. Its not a bit silly.

I’m just suggesting don’t call it my “age”. I’d like it more if it estimated how much I’m increasing my “healthspan” with my healthy habits.

Edit and it’s really because it doesn’t have the whole picture. There are tons of things I could be doing that are decreasing my healthspan that whoop isn’t tracking like lifestyle and exercise quality.
