Analyzing Your Sleep and Recovery Metrics

Need to check your sleep? Use the `get_sleep` tool to grab full data for a given date range. You'll see duration, stages (deep, REM, light), and performance percentages immediately. Better yet, if you know the ID, calling `get_sleep_by_id` gives you granular detail—like respiratory rate and disturbances—without guessing dates.

Tracking WHOOP Workouts with Claude Desktop

Did you just finish a run? Call `get_workout` using an ID to see the strain score, duration, and calories burned. It also pulls in GPS data if it was captured during that specific session. If you want a broader view of activity, use `get_workouts`. This tool lets you filter by date range so you can compare multiple sessions at once.

Body Measurements and Health Status

Want to cross-reference your physical data? The `get_body_measurement` tool helps track metrics alongside the recovery score. You get a holistic view of how you're doing. For daily status, check out `get_cycle_recovery`. This single call gives you resting heart rate, HRV, sleep balance, and strain balance for that 24-hour period.
