Is the Whoop Band Worth It for Tracking Recovery and Sleep
I have seen so many people at my local CrossFit box in Austin wearing the Whoop 4.0 band lately. I am intrigued by the focus on recovery and strain rather than just counting steps. I have a very high stress job and I often find that I am overtraining without realizing it until I crash.
The lack of a screen is actually a plus for me because I do not want more notifications on my wrist. However, the monthly subscription fee seems a bit steep over the long run. I want to know if the data it provides is actually actionable or if it is just a bunch of fancy graphs that do not mean much.
Can anyone share how the Whoop band has changed their training? I am curious if it actually helps you decide when to take a rest day. It is a big commitment to pay every month so I am looking for honest opinions before I sign up.
