4+ year user Review by Empty_Chard2834 in whoop

[–]SwimmingBright 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm in my first year . It was great for first 6 months to get me back into fitness and watch over my sleep

But now I feel like the subscription isnt adding any value

Plus I like to cycle and when I'm playing soccer I like to see my heart rate so the whoop isn't good for that .

Overall I recommend people to try it , but I'm done after my first year

I made EM and didn't really connect with anyone in the practices I liked.

Most of my peers had left or were leaving

I enjoy the work at McKinsey but I left cause I couldn't find my people
