Hi Whoop Team
Right now, anything that isn’t on the official list gets lumped into a single catch-all activity called “Other.” As the community keeps requesting additions like boxing, climbing, bouldering, Les Mills classes, and more, it feels like that bucket is getting crowded!
Proposal
Add a universal “Custom Activity” feature:
-
Pick a Baseline
Select an existing template (e.g., Functional Fitness, HIIT, Running) so strain and recovery calculations stay reliable. -
Rename It
Enter any label - “Bouldering Session,” “Boxing Sparring,” “Les Mills Grit,” “Virtual Row,” etc. -
Save for Reuse
The custom name appears in the activity list alongside Whoop’s defaults, ready for one-tap logging next time.
Why This Matters
-
Accuracy & Consistency - Logging the same workout name every time gives cleaner trends and more meaningful insights.
-
Inclusivity - Covers niche sports and branded classes without requiring one-off partnerships.
-
Simplicity - One enhancement resolves countless “please add my sport” threads and keeps the activity menu tidy.
Replacing that lone “Other” option with flexible custom activities would be a huge win for data quality and user experience.
