The Whoop fitness band, which measures a users heart rate variability and offers insights into everything from workout intensity and recovery to sleep performance, was initially designed for elite athletes. Its now going mainstream. Last May, the company launched the Whoop Strap 3.0, which boosted battery life from two days to five, and upgraded its app to allow users to access a new Strain Coach feature that helps them maximize performance without overdoing it.
