Add Custom Activity Option

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:

  1. Pick a Baseline
    Select an existing template (e.g., Functional Fitness, HIIT, Running) so strain and recovery calculations stay reliable.

  2. Rename It
    Enter any label - “Bouldering Session,” “Boxing Sparring,” “Les Mills Grit,” “Virtual Row,” etc.

  3. 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.
