I wore an Oura ring & a Whoop band on the same hand/wrist for ~12 months. Here's everything I found... 🧵 TLDR: - Whoop isn't accurate enough to be useful. I took it off. - Oura is better. I'm still wearing it. - Beware readiness/recovery scores - raw data are more insightful.

@27newsletter I didn’t even think about that but yeah! Perhaps a lot of second-order consequences we’re unaware of right now…

Sports technology is for fans as much as athletes. Imagine being at a live sports event and being able to see an augmented reality overlay of a player’s real-time game stats, or even heart rate or GPS data. It looks like things might be going that way 👇

@thinksport True, it definitely feels like a 'society' issue - perhaps sport is just one place where we can clearly see some of the effects manifesting?

@EduFraser Yeah, there's definitely logic there. I wonder how many are monitoring/considering things like this right now!

@stressrecovery Exactly... it doesn't sound like many systems are currently set up to support this, and/or the resources to do it effectively.
