“Illness radar” & pause mode
under review
Benjamin Strelow
Whoop is famous for identifying illnesses (such as COVID) early on by respiratory rate. Bevel has the data too.
Extension: A dedicated “sick mode.” If your temperature and respiration rate differ at night, the app should ask you in the morning, “Are you feeling sick?”
The result: If you say “yes,” all training goals are paused, the streaks (training days in a row) are frozen and the focus changes completely to “hydration & sleep.” Nothing is more demotivating than a fitness app that makes you feel guilty when you have the flu.

Hi Benjamin Strelow, we do have a sickness detection algorithm in place. If we notice certain metrics are out of range, we will pull up a prompt for you to change your Activity Status to Sick, which then pauses your target strain and goals.
