I recently wrapped up testing the Whoop MG, the brand’s latest and greatest hardware, and even though I had a few minor quibbles with it, I got pretty hooked on the Lifespan estimation feature. This gives you your so-called ‘Whoop age’, a number that reflects your physiological age based on recovery data, strain, and sleep.
My initial Whoop age matched my biological age. It could’ve been worse – I’ve seen reports of users with Whoop ages a decade older than their actual age – but I knew I just needed to feed the algorithm more data until it realised how youthful I actually was. After all, I spent most of the first three weeks of testing flying back and forth to Kansas to see Garmin, and life had been hectic.
