What would you do if you just booked your place in the All Ireland final? | 🤔 If you're @lougalvin4, you run straight into the change room to breastfeed! | 🤱 🗣 'I’ don’t know if it’s the first baby to be breastfed in Croke Park…’ 🎙 @ashoreilly

Sleep peeps, S&C coaches & physios interested in an objective review of Whoop for your athletes/patients…this is fantastic 👏🏼⬇️
It's out! The absolute beast of an in-depth review on the new Whoop 4.0 Band, but also the platform at large. I dive (really) deep into all aspects of the data from training to recovery, compared against nearly a dozen sensors. Dig on in (and share): dcra.in/Whoop4
