Sorry if this has been asked recently, but I didn't find anyone having a similar experience to mine.
For the first 3 weeks of having my whoop I was in high recovery mode, I had a virus that doesn't hit your immune system too hard but makes it kind of difficult to do stuff, and then I ended up having a pretty annoying allergic reaction to some medication so basically even though I didn't have a fever, I had very annoying symptoms that kept me in bed for a huge chunk of the day.
I also wanted to recover ASAP and was terrified of making my symptoms worse, so I didn't work out at all and generally got a lot of sleep.
This obviously set up my initial stats with a huge (unrealistic) amount of sleep rest, and I'm not sure if this is relevant but a higher HRV than what I have now (it was 125-140, now it's consistently 90-105).
Are the first 30 days *that* important? Does whoop account for the first 30 days possibly being atypical for your baseline? Does this keep updating over time or does the first mnth or so have more importance even after multiple mnths of use?
Curious if anyone had a similar experience and has seen it update later on.
My recovery for the whole time I was MIA was 90% now it's usually in the 50%-60%s when I meet or oversleep my sleep need. (I know this sub is sick of people asking if their yellow recovery is OK, haha, I'm just asking in the context of it consistently being green for the first 30 days because of my high rest. Maybe everyone has quite a high recovery in the first 30 days anyway?)
