Healthspan is finally coming to all Whoop 4.0 Peak members starting August 5. The staggered rollout is wrapping up, and the full feature set is about to hit everyone. This is the one thing most 4.0 users have been waiting on. Those with the 5.0 or MG straps got access right away. Also in the pipeline is the option to link your blood test results with your wearable data.
Healthspan moves from test phase to full release
We mentioned a couple of weeks ago that some 4.0 users were starting to see Healthspan in their app. It looked like a limited release at the time, possibly just a beta test. No more guessing. Whoop says the full public rollout will begin in a few days time.
If you’re on a Whoop 4.0 strap with a Peak membership, expect the feature to appear soon if it hasn’t already. The company is turning it on gradually from August 5th. Most users will not need to worry about the 90-day data threshold to unlock the full metrics, as their device will already have that data in place.
WHOOP Age and Pace of Aging are the two big additions under the Healthspan banner. These metrics try to measure how your lifestyle choices are affecting your long-term physiological health. It’s a shift in focus away from just daily recovery and strain. WHOOP Age gives you a general estimate of how your body compares to the wider population. Pace of Aging tracks whether your biological markers are improving or slipping compared to your actual age.
This isn’t short-term data. It’s built off long-form patterns. So you don’t need to obsess over what your score looks like today. It’s about what your body is trending toward, not how it handled your last hard workout.
Profile and Coach get smarter too
Healthspan is the headliner here, but there are other updates worth a look. The Profile tab is getting a visual upgrade. You’ll start seeing milestone highlights like your longest recovery streaks, biggest strain efforts, along with other personal records. Which should add a bit more context to your data.
The Coach feature is also getting more involved. It will soon offer specific plans that help you improve recovery, sleep, strain, or even reduce your WHOOP Age. Whether these plans are actually useful long-term depends on how well they adjust to your real-world schedule, but it’s good to see that the coaching is becoming more proactive.
The Journal is another area that’s getting some attention. Logged behaviors will feed into a more complete picture, so you can track how habits correlate with long-term changes, not just next-day recovery. It’s early days for this, but the direction makes sense.
One feature that is also coming is an expanded view in the Strength Trainer. WHOOP says you’ll be able to track volume across one- and six-month windows. That includes workout recaps and a running log of your best lifts.
Lab testing in the pipeline
Whoop has also opened up a waitlist for something called Advanced Labs. It sounds like an attempt to bridge the gap between wearable data and formal diagnostics. This will combine your clinical lab results with strap data for deeper insight. For now it’s limited access, but you can join in the fun – as long as you live in the US.
Basically, WHOOP Advanced Labs includes a comprehensive list of lab test results to support preventative health, performance, and longevity recommendations. In essence, a detailed blood test that the smartphone app links to your real-world health and fitness data. Ultrahuman, actually, also has something like this in place.
The updates are rolling out in stages, but it feels like WHOOP is trying to mature its platform. Less emphasis on short-term readiness scores, more on building a bigger picture. Healthspan fits into that nicely, and I think most users will welcome the shift. I’ve been waiting for this feature to go wide since it first popped up in early access, and it’s good to finally see it happening.
