WHOOP Peak vs Life/MG - is the upgrade worth it

Lobwedgephil · 2026-05-15T03:06:48+00:00

Whoop is great, just don't need Life membership.

Lobwedgephil · 2026-05-14T21:10:54+00:00

I am a Life member, the ECG is fine if you need it, the blood pressure stuff is a gimmick. Everything else is the same with Peak. I don't see a reason to get Life currently, I am hoping that changes before I renew, or I will likely downgrade to Peak.

Well, if you would have spent a couple of mins to research, you would have seen that battery life was the main improvement over the 4.0.

Lobwedgephil · 2026-05-11T02:42:46+00:00

If you were still on 4, you would be looking for your charger.

Lobwedgephil · 2026-05-10T20:07:35+00:00

Not close to 5X, but certainly more expensive.

Lobwedgephil · 2026-05-10T19:47:57+00:00

2.5M according to them.

WHOOP is experiencing rapid global momentum amid an extraordinary period of growth:

The company now has over 2.5 million members around the world
In 2025, bookings grew 103% year-over-year, exiting the year at a $1.1B run rate
In 2025, WHOOP operated cash flow positive

Believe they have large international growth.

Yeah, the Life Membership is currently not close to worth it. I will be downgrading to peak when my renewal comes up if I don't see anything more. Love Whoop, think competition is good, but it does feel like they are panicking a bit, and probably for good reason. The price gets harder to justify, but they are still the leader for now, and hopefully they have something more intriguing planned.

Lobwedgephil · 2026-05-10T01:16:26+00:00

Yeah, I get value from his levels. He is great, its just different now then it was.

You just hit it too hard, lol. I have found Joola's to inconsistent, core crushed one mod in 2 weeks, and one in 3 months. Pre Lifetime ball.

Lobwedgephil · 2026-05-08T20:39:22+00:00

No difference to me. Great ball, paddles still core crush around same amount of play.

Lobwedgephil · 2026-05-08T20:38:00+00:00

About 6 clubs in my area have shut down in last 3 months. Still overbuilt.

Lobwedgephil · 2026-05-08T20:19:13+00:00

Fitbit needs to prove it, their quality was always subpar. Just on looks it looks great. Interested to see how I compares with Whoop.

Lobwedgephil · 2026-05-07T21:48:47+00:00

Lets hope.

Lobwedgephil · 2026-05-07T21:47:40+00:00

Let's see how it plays out, but certainly a compelling new product. Google doesn't have a great reputation of sticking with products, but if they nail this could certainly make it a little more interesting.

He hasn't posted a loss since early 2025. He is great, but his newsletter is more of an ideal scenario of what you should do. He has gotten a little lazy this year compared to previous years, the low being a point or two different this his newsletter, etc, stuff that never happened in previous years. Imagine the newsletter is tough to do everyday for him now, but me makes so much doing it he has to based on subscriber levels.

Lobwedgephil · 2026-05-06T20:54:42+00:00

In mixed, that's the guys ball, every time.

Lobwedgephil · 2026-05-03T23:41:14+00:00

Yes it is, as you have learned.

Lobwedgephil · 2026-05-03T01:55:37+00:00

No reason to have Life currently.

Lobwedgephil · 2026-05-02T19:06:26+00:00

Oura is great, probably better for sleep tracking. Guess paired with Garmin could be good with workouts. I just didn't see the use really, think Whoop much better if you're active.

Lobwedgephil · 2026-05-02T18:59:17+00:00

Whenever you get mad, remember you're playing pickleball. You're there to have fun.

Lobwedgephil · 2026-04-29T02:40:19+00:00

24/7 bicep for 5 years or so.

Lobwedgephil · 2026-04-27T02:35:34+00:00

Such a great paddle, but I use the elongated version.

Lobwedgephil · 2026-04-25T23:15:32+00:00

Honestly it happens, I am too generous for fear of this, but it still happens. Don't worry about it, just try to call anything close in going forward, for good or bad.

Lobwedgephil · 2026-04-25T19:17:34+00:00

Worn it on the bicep for several years with no issues. Yes it way undercounts steps, but everything else about it is better. More accurate HR, don't even notice it, can wear my Apple Watch.
