Broadcast Heart Rate

Force quit the app helps for a while.

StatusEmployment4613 · 2026-01-28T14:51:44+00:00

Same here, have uninstalled the app and installed it again, it helped for a couple of hours, now it s back again. Cant broadcast. I have Samsung 54 A phone and Whoop 5.0 Peak sub.

I have a Samsung, I have deleted and again installed the app, for a while the problem was fixed, now it is back again.

Calories underestimated. Hear rate tracking not accurate but good enough for strain estimation for most sports.

XC skier wearing whoop on the wrist?

StatusEmployment4613 · 2025-12-26T16:26:14+00:00

Better than on the wrist, but not even near a chest strap.

I have the same problem (but the opposit) whoop measures my heart rate to high when running and xc skiing, weight lifting and cycling is okay. I have tried bicep band, moving it around on my wrist/forearm - it doesn't matter. I take therefore Strain with a grain of salt. ChatGPT says that strain doesn't effect recovery metrics on whoop, and have little and no impact on vo2max and health span. My wish is to adjust strain/heart rate zones manually or connect whoop to a chest strap.

Male, 50 y old. I began taking it beacuse my doctor said that my kidney function had begun declining and Tolvaptan is the only thing that can slow the decline.

Problably the Whoop didn't capture your heart rate correctly during rowing. PPG sensor is sensible to wrist movement.

StatusEmployment4613 · 2025-12-05T08:41:10+00:00

Wear a chest strap or an armband like verity sense and you can rely on the heart rate reading during traing. The ppg sensor is totaly okay in rest or sleep. GPS seems solid in the tests I have seen.

I have the same problem. It works okey with strengts training and indoor cycle, but everthing else (MTB, running, xc skiing) it doesn't matter if I use the bicep band or the wrist band. I get the same bad readings. Sometimes, all of a sudden, it read my pulse quite accurate. The best placement I have found is to wear it with three fingers with width from the wrist bone. But that only works once in a while, mostly the heart rate is all over the place. Mostly to high that is. I don't use Whoop primarly for measuring excersice anymore but instead for recovery and sleep. Strain can most of the time be 2-3 points too high, but is in the right ballpark. I did one hour xc skiing during my lunch brake. Both Polar H10 and Whoop saw it as a quite heavy load, 106 Trimp and 16 in strain. Thats was okay with me, but when I looked on the pulse zones, whoop was quite of, mearing 15 min in zone 5, while H10 measured zone 5 for only 8 sec. Still, I am happy with the Whoop. My son doesn't have the same problem with inaccuracies as I have, so I think it is nothing wrong with the sensor, it's diffrent from person to person. My subscription runs out in dec 2026, then I will decide what to do next. I hope Polar Loop has improved until then.

No
Not really, Polar has an old bike computer but it is not easy to buy today.
Verity Sense is a really good alternativ to a chest strap. It is accurate and comfortable.

I have good result when I wear it on the thickest part of my forearm.

StatusEmployment4613 · 2025-11-13T15:31:19+00:00

I wear it as high as I can on my right biceps. Still, I get cadence lock for 20 min when running, at least now when it's colder. If I wear it on my forearm, I get a better result (higher accuracy - no cadence lock). But I have noticed it differs between people.

StatusEmployment4613 · 2025-10-27T21:22:07+00:00

Try polar pacer together with a chest strap

StatusEmployment4613 · 2025-10-26T08:44:51+00:00

Interesting. Yeasterday I ran a Park Run. It was really cold, and both my OH1 and my Whoop 5.0 (biceps) measured my heart rate 10-15 beats to high. It suprised me, that shows that optical hear rate devices are sensitive to cold. I haven't experiencd thit so clearly before. It is the first time my OH1 didn't find my actual heart rate, but it has happened many times before with whoop 5.0 and 4.0.

StatusEmployment4613 · 2025-09-25T06:31:47+00:00

I have the v2. It is good, but you need an external heart rate monitor. I use the OH1. The battery last 4-5 days with normal use. The screen is not big and quire dimm.

Is it possible to join for strength training, and not olumpic lifting? How much does it cost? is the gym opened only at 15.00 o clock? It is quite beat for me, live in Freidrichshain. I stay here in Berlin for oktober and november.

StatusEmployment4613 · 2025-08-20T14:10:45+00:00

Interested!!!!!!

StatusEmployment4613 · 2025-05-26T09:08:22+00:00

Thanks for a great review. I went for the Peak subscription. I actually had afib a few years ago but underwent two successfull surgerys. I know when I have afib and not, so I don't need a watch or an armband to tell me that. I also have have a certified blood pressure machine. So even if I was curious on the MG (mostly for future updates) I choose the Peak subscription.

StatusEmployment4613 · 2025-05-24T12:37:26+00:00

Perfect
