A Twitter interaction between two stars

On June 29th at 7:05 PM, Marvellous I., Esq, turned to Twitter seeking suggestions for fitness & sleep tracking, listing three options in a poll: Apple, Oura Ring, and Whoop. Among the responses, the 26-year-old track and field athlete shared her insights & recommended the brand Whoop. She credits her college track coach’s passion for WHOOP for instilling in her the importance of focusing on recovery and self-care.

Thomas stated, “Whoop is great for both – measuring lots of details and personalized tracking of patterns. I would say with its costs and features, it’s more for people who are very serious about optimizing performance.”
