I'd love to get one of these. I have been using a whoop to sanity check all my exercise routines with their recovery data. I feel like something like this could help me hone in on the perfect diet and lifestyle even better than a continuous glucose monitor.

You might not be getting accurate recovery data from Whoop. The heart rate sensor is doesn't work very well. https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2020/05/whoop-3-platform-review....

Data has been pretty close to my Apple watch. One annoying part is it sometimes stops transmitting data to my bike computer, but I think that’s a Bluetooth problem and after the workout I will check the whoop app and it was recording the whole time.

What's a whoop?

It's a heartrate wearable that focuses on really accurate heartrate variability measurement. This is important as it's an indicator of recovery.

This is the only article I could find that includes detailed information comparing the Whoops sensors to other devices: https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2020/05/whoop-3-platform-review....

Do you happen to know of others?

I don't have an article about it, but the reason i chose to replace my apple watch with a whoop was because i wanted insight into my HRV. Apple watch only measures HRV a few times a day, while whoop is continuous. I would only recommend a whoop if you are concerned you might be overtraining, that's what i use it for.

Looks like it is a fitness tracker of some sort.
