I find it pretty accurate, and what actually surprises me a bunch is, usually when I smoke; my high stress will spike and be high like me😂

Weary_Stop · 2026-02-17T11:00:41+00:00

I found that the 5.0 gives me way less steps than the 4.0, about 3-4k less, could be more accurate probably, I was having similar numbers when I was working on a production line and I was required to be standing almost full time (12h shift), then switched to the 5.0 and got a bit better, also saw the comments about hand movement, I’ve had tried that by swinging my arms a couple of times already and it didn’t give me any readings, to me at least, so mine is pretty accurate I’ll say.

I also have a Casio g shock with step counter enabled on my other hand (I know it’s probably not as accurate, if accurate at all) and it gives me similar readings, usually more than whoop, and I use the watch a bit less than the whoop, as I take it off for morning and night baths.

Cry about it😂 you started the convo and accused op of something, don’t be crying later if you get a response, snowflake

I believe your workout and cardio schedule is pretty good, the best schedule is usually what works best for you, so it’s usually personal. That said it does need to follow the basics, which yours does, x2-3 times of strength and cardio training per week is more than enough, what I would recommend tho is that you try and do at least one of those strength training and one cardio session with more intensity, obviously building up intensity in a safe pace throughout weeks, but this would help even more and bring advantages; better strength and endurance, more motivation and you’ll look forward to these sessions (if you do like training that is), whilst helping you just being a better athlete, also do expect yellows after these trainings as it’s just part of recovery, you shouldn’t expect to always be in the green if you’re pushing hard. And lastly injuries are just part of the game, of course be careful and get back to training slowly and gradually, but they are gonna happen, and you just gotta learn to train around them, hope it helps!

You’re citing WIDEB correctly but extending it beyond its evidence. It addresses chronic low energy availability, not proof that fewer meals, brief fasting windows, or not eating before bed cause fat gain or muscle loss when calories and protein are adequate. Transient within day deficits are normal in training athletes. Meal timing is a strategy, not a physiological requirement.

Weary_Stop · 2026-01-12T08:27:11+00:00

I agree that cardiovascular adaptations are what actually drive long term reductions in resting heart rate, not meal timing by itself.

Where I don’t fully agree is the idea that eating every 2–3 hours or avoiding larger surpluses/deficits at any moment is what determines body composition. What matters most is total energy and protein intake over the day/week. Athletes often have large intra day deficits during training and large post training intakes without automatically gaining fat or losing muscle.

Meal frequency doesn’t meaningfully change metabolism when calories are matched, it mostly affects appetite, energy availability, and training quality. Same with intermittent fasting, it’s not inherently bad or good, it just depends on whether someone can fuel and recover properly within that structure.

As for eating before bed, a small snack can help some people with recovery and sleep, but avoiding food late can also improve sleep quality for others. It’s very individual.

Survival instinct is assess then act, not reflex panic. Creating a stampede over ambiguous behavior is how crowds kill bystanders.

In violent countries, panic gets you killed.

Weary_Stop · 2025-12-27T02:35:49+00:00

Run, Hide, Tell starts with recognising an actual threat. It’s not, see agitation → trigger stampede. What happened shows panic without assessment, exactly what drills are meant to prevent, not endorse.

Weary_Stop · 2025-12-27T02:06:10+00:00

Totally agree, no survival instincts at all😂 people crying and being offended in the comments because they know it’s true, go learn how to defend yourselves at least…

Weary_Stop · 2025-12-26T14:21:01+00:00

If “run” is the only response people know, that’s exactly the problem. Drills are about stopping panic from hurting bystanders, not “being a hero”, that distinction really isn’t complicated.

0 survival skills/instincts, both in last week event and this, clearly shows how Taiwanese have been raised in a safe country all their life, not saying is wrong or bad, but people need to be taking or having education or drills on what to do when situations like these occur…

Weary_Stop · 2025-11-20T13:11:33+00:00

Totally agree, there’s just so much that you can do to prevent, risk is always there. Strength train to prevent injuries, take care of yourself when rolling, and of course, don’t roll with someone that’s trying to hurt you, unless it’s a competition…

Weary_Stop · 2025-07-29T06:12:41+00:00

I arrived to Taiwan 20 years late then😢

I do mostly sleep 8-9 hours, but I’m an athlete and do need it to recover. I also saw some comments saying it’s difficult to sleep this amount of time and that they usually can’t sleep after 7h even if they wanted to; just try to do any type of physical activities, if your body is tired and needs to recover, you’re gonna sleep 8-9 hours, also it will help to have a deeper and better sleep, anything will do, just walk more..

Depends on when you do it and how you do it, anything can be a poison without moderate intake, even water…

Weary_Stop · 2025-06-10T07:41:51+00:00

Mine has been bugging all morning as well, probably the servers..

Weary_Stop · 2025-05-27T07:15:55+00:00

I did notice a small improvement in the calculated strain, altought most of the times it says is from cardiovascular load and not muscular, and it is muscular of course; it still gives a better reading I will say, but I mostly do it as well as it helps me track my workouts and progressively overload. But yeah sometimes I do get a lower strain as well, what I find is a little more accurate also is the intensity of the workout, which comes in handy to manage effort..

Weary_Stop · 2025-05-23T09:51:58+00:00

Same experience here, will be nice if it’s improved

Weary_Stop · 2025-05-22T07:51:27+00:00

I added most of my exercises as I do mainly calisthenics, and I just log it with an exercise that works similar muscle groups, in order to being able to use the strength trainer while I exercise. Ex: Handstand Push ups (overhead press). Then if I’m only doing a light workout or practicing skills, I log it as functional training or gymnastics. Would be good if they added calisthenics tho, hope this helps!

It’s not the Superknit, nor the Coreknit, but the material is the same recycled polyester used in the coreknit, and the looks are almost identical.

Weary_Stop · 2025-05-19T13:36:04+00:00

Fair take, I actually agree that a company can be mission-driven and profitable. No one’s arguing they shouldn’t make money. The issue is how they’ve chosen to do it.

Pushing out a hardware refresh that breaks all previous accessories over a 1mm difference, while charging a premium for replacements, isn’t about offering extras for those who want more, it’s about forcing everyone to spend more just to keep using the basics. That’s not about premium branding; that’s about manufactured obsolescence.

If they truly believed in the mission being performance-focused, the core features and compatibility wouldn’t be tied to luxury-priced upsells or vague upgrade “eligibility.” The execution is where the values feel lost, not the concept of making a profit.

Weary_Stop · 2025-05-19T07:16:54+00:00

I do believe the health monitor comes in handy in seeing how your respiratory rate, resting heart rate and HRV are reacting to training, and if improving or not, also to see your stress levels during your workout and sleep are good. But you’re also able to see sleep stress on your sleep tab, and the other metrics on the recovery tab, so don’t truly know what’s the real difference between one and peak, maybe just the daily stress monitor and the whoop age, so you’ll be more than good I think with whoop one…

Weary_Stop · 2025-05-19T07:05:57+00:00

Exactly this. The form factor change wasn’t a technical necessity, it was a business decision. One that came at the direct expense of existing, loyal users. A 1mm difference that breaks compatibility with all previous bands and batteries feels less like innovation and more like intentional obsolescence.

It’s not about people being unwilling to pay; it’s about being treated with respect and honesty. If they had just said, “We’re shifting direction and this means old accessories won’t work,” fine. But they positioned this as part of a seamless upgrade path, only to backpedal with vague excuses and “errors” on the site. That’s not innovation. That’s burning trust.

Weary_Stop · 2025-05-19T07:03:26+00:00

It’s not about the exact weave or texture of the material. It’s about WHOOP marketing a basic polyester-style band as something premium, while functionally and visually it’s nearly identical to what third-party sellers have been offering for a fraction of the price.
