WHOOP offers a fitness membership that focuses on improving personal health and performance through a wearable device called the WHOOP Strap 3.0. This device continuously collects physiological data, including heart rate, sleep patterns, and recovery levels, to provide users with personalized recommendations on their daily activity, sleep needs, and overall readiness for physical exertion. Unlike many competitors, WHOOP operates on a subscription model, where users pay a fee to access the membership, which includes the device and continuous insights through the WHOOP app. This model not only provides users with valuable data but also fosters a strong community through social features and challenges. The goal of WHOOP is to help users optimize their health and performance, catering to both fitness enthusiasts and professional athletes.
