Few better feelings than a 100% sleep score

Question for oura and whoop folks:

Do yall feel that your scores correlates closely with how you actually feel every morning?

hmm I've always put apple watch in a different (lower) tier in my mind than oura and whoop but i could be wrong and it may be in the same tier

trying to get a consensus here.. if everyone says "not sure" then it's probably placebo

I ask myself this a lot (Apple Watch and Eight Sleep user) and I *think* so but I’m still not sure tbh, could be placebo

i'd rather kill the radio and listen to the rain hit.

cool cool.. what does you doing 87% of your best to recover mean exactly? like you spent the recommended time sleeping overall + recommended time sleeping in each of the sleep stages? (even tho that may not have you recovered 87% necessarily)

27 days in with whoop: yeah, generally. some caveats.

I was sick recently so I got a few extra long sleeps and low-activity days strung together, so my "recovery" was high, but I still felt like crap. 

so, kind of subjective there, but I think it does a good job of telling me how good my "recovery effort" was, even if that's not my "readiness score". 

like, 87% recovery isn't that I'm 87% recovered, but that I did 87% of the best I could do to recover that day/night, even if there's more to go.

and HRV is probably a good enough "readiness score" on its own, so I don't expect whoop to run a fancy calculation for me.
