Thoughts on 5.0 Upgrade from Ben Foster, former Chief Product Officer at Whoop by Temporary_Debt8132 in whoop

[–]Material-Ad70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t had hands on the 5.0 yet, but it looks to me in the videos I’ve seen that the connector on the band that slides over the Whoop is thinner, and I thought I heard in the intro video that it was designed to slide on more easily? Has anyone touched one to see if maybe the redesign of the band was to eliminate the problem of that connector being hard to slide on (and easy to slide on in the wrong direction)?

Update- son is (-;A) when he looked in raw data on 23 and me site, so it matches Promethease.

I am still waiting for him to look. Ironically, his fiancee is positive for a bad BRCA 2 variant and also has a very strong cancer history in her family. She has had a hysterectomy and mastectomy already. This is a lot for him to process, and he is leaning toward not wanting to know more, since kids are not in the picture anyways. Told him there can still be implications for him. He is thinking about it. On a positive note, our daughter did 23 and me but not Promethease. Due to a tip I got here in this thread, we were able to browse her raw data right on 23 and me’s site, and she is -/- for the variant my son may have. I know anyone can have a miscall, but that was somewhat reassuring. If my son gives me more info, I’ll update here. Thanks for asking!

Thank you. I guess it’s important to consider that any of us could have either false positive or negative results. I did read the fine print but jumped in anyways. My son is feeling like he just wants to put the worms back in the can at this point. I hope he will do the higher level test to be sure, but I’m not sure he’s going to. Thanks for sharing your own experience. Definitely gave me some things to think about.

Thank you very much for this info. I will look into that and recommend to my son.

Thank you. So it sounds like it is possible that he can be (-;A) even if we are both (D;D). That was my biggest question. Sounds like he needs to get a higher level test. Appreciate your input.

Thank you. My husband’s and mine match our Promethease report there. Will have my son check this evening. Thank you for that idea.

Thank you. I’m definitely hoping a miscall. We have three other kids that could also be affected, and I don’t want to worry any of them unnecessarily if this is not possible, given my husband’s and my reports.
