I have noticed when I eat pumpkin, sunflower or any seeds, it shows as if I did some exercise! Anyone experienced such thing?
Hi @AlHelaibi - interesting! I am wondering if your heart rate elevates, or if the combination of repetitive motion + elevated heart rate is contributing!
I didn’t check the heart elevation but it seems the hand movement is what triggers it. Funny though, why does my station increase so dramatically?
Strain is measuring cardiovascular load, with heart rate (HR) heavily contributing, so if it is detecting an increase in HR, the strain will increase.
However, if hand movement itself is causing your WHOOP to detect an increase itself, it may be that light is getting in and your strap needs to be adjusted (likely tightened or moved slightly further up the arm) for more accuracy ![]()
