Terrain isn’t a place. It’s a practice. The way you move, make, and push past your own edges. Surfer and artist, Tre'lan Michael, and athlete and biochemistry student, Kayla Roseboro, each explore their own. For them, discovering the world and discovering yourself is the same pursuit.

RT @willahmed: I've always said our ambition with @WHOOP is to create something that's either cool or invisible. Today, we're taking that philosophy to the next level with the launch of LAYER 2, our latest collection with Samuel Ross. Available now via link below.

WHOOP is now in Arabic. We’re helping more people around the world turn their data into a deeper understanding of their bodies.

Today’s the Sports Equinox, the rare day when baseball, basketball, football and hockey all share the spotlight. So which one takes the biggest toll on the body? 🏀⚾🏒🏈
 Basketball. A typical session scores a Strain of 12.9 out of 21, the highest of the four.

Home-court advantage is losing ground. An analysis of 3,489 WNBA games across 18 seasons reveals how changing travel conditions are reshaping performance in women's professional basketball.

Why? Basketball keeps the heart working.
 Players spend 13% of a session in heart rate zones 4–5, compared with 5% for football, 4% for hockey and 2% for baseball. And it builds the most Strain in less time. A typical session runs 65 minutes, vs. 76 for hockey and 79 for football.

The gap between home and away is narrowing. But how athletes travel still matters.

The pulse in the stands tells a similar story.
 During last season’s championships, fans tuned in to basketball’s biggest stage felt it most, with a Strain of 5.3 and a peak heart rate of 146 bpm. The hardest sport to play might also be the hardest to watch.

Adaptability, engineered. Project Terrain: Layer 02 brings together material innovation, precision detailing, and wearable technology to meet the demands of exploration. Designed by SR_A’s Samuel Ross for performance across changing conditions.

AI can help us do more. But how do we make sure we don’t lose what makes us human in the process? This week on the WHOOP Podcast WHOOP SVP of Research, Algorithms, and Data Emily Capodilupo sits down with philosopher and AI researcher Dr. Aleksandra Przegalińska to explore the evolving relationship between humans and artificial intelligence. Together, Emily and Aleksandra unpack how AI is changing the way we work, create, learn, and think. The episode explores how the future may depend less on what AI can do and more on how thoughtfully we choose to use it.

Fueled By Exploration. Project Terrain: Layer 02 expands on WHOOP x SR_A’s vision for a seasonal system pushing the boundaries of wearable design and human performance. Designed by Samuel Ross for elevated performance through rugged environments, Layer 02 is a study in function, adaptability and resilience.

3. Human judgment needs to stay at the center. As AI becomes increasingly capable, Aleksandra argues that judgment, selection, and decision-making remain fundamentally important human responsibilities. That means questioning AI’s output, deciding when to trust it, and considering what might be lost when we outsource too much—from individual skills to the distinct voices and perspectives that make our work our own. For organizations adopting AI, that also means creating an open dialogue with employees about how the technology will be used, what its limitations are, and where humans fit into the process.

Project Terrain: Layer 2. WHOOP - SR_A launching tomorrow.

Everyone wants to learn how to manage their stress But not all stress is bad. The key is knowing when it’s helping you grow and when it’s wearing you down. This week on the WHOOP Podcast’s Science of Human Performance Series, WHOOP Global Head of Human Performance and Principal Scientist Dr. Kristen Holmes sits down with WHOOP Staff Research Scientist Gregory Grosicki, PhD, MDS to unpack what stress really does to the body. Together, Dr. Holmes and Dr. Grosicki explore the difference between good and bad stress, how stress shows up in your physiology, why your perception of stress matters, and what you can do throughout the day to better manage stress and support your sleep and recovery.

“You win the game in the locker room first.” For the Boston Red Sox, belief came before the results. This week on the WHOOP Podcast, WHOOP Global Head of Human Performance and Principal Scientist Dr. Kristen Holmes sits down with @RedSox stars Willson Contreras and Wilyer Abreu to go inside the mindset, preparation, and team-first mentality that helped change the course of their season. Both players pointed to the sweep over New York at home as the moment the momentum shifted. But inside the clubhouse, the confidence in one another was already there. What followed: 15 straight wins and a spot in October. Listen to the episode now on YouTube, Spotify, or Apple Podcasts.

The goal isn’t to eliminate stress. It’s to understand it, recognize when it’s helping you grow versus wearing you down, and build enough recovery into your life to adapt to it.

An easier way to bring any workout into Strength Trainer. Upload a photo of your workout plan and WHOOP will build it directly in Strength Trainer, so you can skip the manual setup and get straight to training.

Boston or New York? We analyzed data from WHOOP wearers in both cities to see which fans are ready to cheer their team on and which fans should consider focusing on recovery first. As the Official Health and Fitness Wearable of the Boston @RedSox it's clear who we're rooting for this week. Who do you have winning it all?

RT @willahmed: Proud to announce a new landmark partnership with the Department of Health Abu Dhabi to advance clinical research and preventive healthcare. 🇦🇪 We're launching a 24-month research program to study how continuous health monitoring and personalized coaching can improve cardiometabolic health and reduce the risk of chronic disease. The UAE is one of our fastest-growing markets, and @whoop has grown 15x across the GCC in just three years. Grateful to H.E. Mansoor Ibrahim Al Mansoori and the entire Department of Health team for their leadership and partnership. Our ambition is to add a billion healthy years to humanity. Partnerships like this will help us get there. 💪🏽
