WHOOP will let you count your meal prep or vacuuming as an activity shown in the same section as running, lifting, bike riding…..

WHOOP of all the trackers seems to have both the best auto recognition (literally can tell when i kayak) and most options for activity

FINALLY. Have found the treatment of only optional movement by all these apps classist or whatever. And they've dropped the "workout" word... baby steps.

I farmer-carried two winter tires today a fair distance and Whoop gave me strain cred but no activity cred.

OK!! So I have had a WHOOP now for about ~3mo?

- Really nice comprehensive tracking — tries to get a full picture of your life. There's a journal feature that allows you to see how all kinds of choices you make over time affect your well-being, which I really like. Things like "did I eat before bed", "did I sleep in the same bed", "did I hit my protein goal" etc. 

- Fun community features. If you have friends with WHOOP bands it's really motivating to try and keep up with them. Reminds me of my first wearable, the Fitbit, in that way. 

- great battery life and novel way to charge. you can charge a WHOOP without taking it off

- app in general is awesome and explains EVERYTHING it's showing your really nicely. Plays nicely with Apple Health too! 

- great autodetection of activities. It KNEW without me telling it i was kayaking!

I actually wear both. I think Apple Watch is honestly fine. WHOOP $$$$$$ !
