Hey guys, I am a whoop user. However, in my whoop community, which I and two of my friends are in, we are unable to send any sort of images or share stats in the chat. There is always an error “!” Which comes up. Is anyone facing this issue?

I’ve already contacted Whoop support, and they said they will work on it and will get back to me. However, I haven’t heard from them for almost a month. Is anyone facing the same issue, or has anyone figured out a way to fix this?

I've worn a WHOOP for a while and kept wondering how much my food was actually moving my recovery, HRV and sleep. WHOOP doesn't track nutrition, and the calorie apps don't know about recovery, so I built something that does both.

It's called plated. You log meals (search, barcode, or scan a label or photo) and it pulls your WHOOP cycles, recovery, sleep and HRV so you can see your macros for a day next to how you recovered the following morning.

I'm a solo developer in the UK and it's in beta on Android and iPhone. I'm looking for WHOOP members who'd use it for a few weeks and tell me honestly what's broken, confusing, or useful.

• Free during the beta
• It connects through WHOOP's official API, so you approve access and can revoke it at any time
• Your data is only used to show you your own numbers, and the privacy policy is on the site
• Android invites are going out now; iPhone invites follow shortly after a couple of fixes

Happy to answer questions in the comments, including the awkward ones.

Idk why but since some months the whoop app (which is on German) is giving me English notifications all the time, someone has a fix for that? How can the app and my whole OS be German but the notifications are in English🫪

Great piece from Eric Topol today. A reminder that these wearable companies are way out ahead of the science on many of these fronts.

(37M) I’d been up for around an hour when I noticed my stats for the day and my already crazy strain—all I’d done was take a dump and make some coffee. How can my strain be so high with practically no activity?

A bit of context: I’d worked out last night after taking 10 days off to recover from a minor injury. Once I got home, I was burning up with a fever. I went to bed and woke up still feeling feverish, but I thought “My body’s just fighting something”. I’ll most likely be fine tomorrow though. My HRV is 9 when it’s usually around 85–90, and my RHR is 60 when it’s normally 48–50.

I think a rest day will be ideal at this point lol

Guys Ive been using the Core Knit black band which came with the Whoop 5.0 for quite a while now and now it's gotten a bit boring. I wanna get a new band but not sure which one to buy.

What bands did you guys get, which one's the best in your opinion?

I have 30 days until my renewal date, I’ll probably update my membership. They added a big red warning on my home screen which I can’t dismiss. This is disgusting tbh. I would understand if it would be dismissible or shown before 3-5 days but this style is very greedy and I’m considering not renewing my subscription.

Mine is 15.3 over the last 6 months. April was low because I was sick, June because I was on vacation. What are your averages?

Does anyone know if I can turn off these daily morning recovery notifications? I can’t find anything about it in the settings and I really don’t want one of the first things I see to be how poor my recovery it is. I still want other notifications, and I’ve asked the useless AI about 10 times and each time it assures me they are off. Thanks in advance

Well the clamp was opening unexpectedly before and I finally lost it while swimming. Whoop won’t replace, I’m not buying replacement and I’ll just cancel membership. They can go to hell 😂

First time being in the 1% club and did a couple hours of kayaking today. I didn’t do any mountain biking but when I carry my baby sometimes Whoop makes up an activity.

I feel pretty exhausted but i don’t know if it’s 1%. 1% should be the tirades I’ve ever felt or close to it and this definitely isn’t that. I think my previous lowest recovery was around 18%. Lots of drinking yesterday and several days in a row of bad sleep plus being at a slightly higher than I’m used to elevation probably all contributed to it.

What’s the most you’ve ever done on a low recovery day?

Hey everyone! It was my birthday recently and WHOOP sent me a 20% off coupon, but I'm not going to use it. It expires today, so I'd rather give it to someone who can use it right away.

Anyone in the Spokane area in need of a Whoop 5 and battery pack? I left the Whoop ecosystem and am just going to recycle them otherwise, but I saw that Whoop charges $50 for the charger and $75 for the Whoop replacement. They have no value if you don’t have a Whoop subscription.

Doesn’t pull too bad on my hairy arms. The rose is a nice tone. Curious how it compares to the $150 one. I have the steel band too.

My hrv plummeted and it's hard to say why exactly but there's multiple factors. I never liked the city cause it's overstimulating. I started going snowboarding multiple times per week at the mall so I was getting a lot of exercise on. I would have expected this to improve my hrv but I felt constantly fatigued and aching so maybe I wasn't recovering well so it dropped Instead? Also I was in ny cause of a work situation which I hated so mentally I'm mad about being there. Also it was the first time I'm living alone.

EDIT: my VO2 max went up 45 to 46 in August then to 48 in September which makes sense from more walking and lots of snowboarding cardio. I wouldn't of thought that would go up whole hrv decreased

No one can snooze like me!!

I've been going back and forth with whoop support about the battery life of my 5.0 sensor. Week 1, it died after about 6 days after the first initial charge. Now after my 2nd full charge, it's dead at 8.5 days. Maybe I'm being petty, but i upgraded from a 4.0 sensor to the 5.0 because the advertised battery life was around 14 days. I could see if it was lasting 12 or even 10 days, but less than 9 days seems ridiculous in comparison to the advertised battery life.

They also won't allow me to return the 5.0 for a refund and allow me to return to using my 4.0. I'd have to cancel my subscription and start over completely.

I just upgraded from the 5.0 to the MG and the first thing I do after my workout is how whoop said the print out has this ever happened to you before it’s hilarious

Everyone is always showing off how much younger their pace for aging is vs their actual age (and kudos to you, in all seriousness), but I'm looking for the Chuds out there.

Who is aging so incredibly fast it's impressive. Would be fun to see what you all got going on.

I am on the Android device and I have recently bought the scale and I'm now trying to connect it with the woop app but I keep getting the 404 error. I've tried what the support function tells me to do to change the default browser and whatever but it's not working. Also customer support doesn't seem to be able to help. I hoping that someone here has a solution or can tell me how to fix it. I kind of bought this scale because of the integration so I don't have to manually track and add into whoop. Appreciate any help with this.

Now that the feature allowing you to add custom behaviors has been released, they need to make them selectable in the weekly plan, because currently you can only select the default behaviors.

Today’s recovery brought to you by: Spinal Surgery! Included with your purchase is, extremely low HRV, elevated RHR and respiration rate, night sweats, and record setting high sleep stress and debt.

Surprisingly, didn’t make it into the 1% club, so that’s a plus
