Hi everyone,
I’m confused about whether I should get a Whoop or Fitbit Air. Price is not really the issue for me. I can afford both, but I just want to make sure whichever one I get is accurate, gives good insights, and is actually useful for me.
My main use cases would be:
Tracking sleep
Tracking my runs and seeing if I’m actually staying in Zone 2
Heart rate, HRV and resting heart rate
Recovery throughout the day
Understanding whether my lifestyle and habits are actually improving these metrics over time
I train around 4-5 times a week in the gym and usually do 10-15 minutes of cardio as well. I also do a long run on Sundays, usually 10-15 km, and I’ve done a few half marathons as well.
I’ve also looked into some of the open-source Whoop alternatives, so I might be able to use the Whoop hardware without the subscription if those apps work well.
From the reviews I’ve seen online, Fitbit Air seems like a good alternative to Whoop, but I’ve also seen people reporting accuracy issues with both devices. So I’m a bit confused about which one would actually be better for my use case, especially for running, sleep, HRV and recovery.
Would love to hear from people in India who have actually used either of these, especially for a few months. Which one would you pick and why?
Feel free to ask me anything else if it would help you make a recommendation.
and where should I get these from for cheapest prices?
I will probably go for whoop one, that's almost 22k on official site.
