The Human Performance Company Celebrates Its Commitment to Help Members Power Their Obsession to Unlock Their Potential

WHOOP, the human performance company, today announced the launch of its brand campaign “The Best Obsess.” The campaign underscores the company’s mission to unlock human performance by encouraging members to embrace their healthy obsessions. “The Best Obsess” recognizes that some of the top performers in the world don’t view themselves as talented - rather, obsessed and deeply committed to self improvement. By tracking data through WHOOP and adhering to recommendations across sleep, strain, recovery, and stress, members of all stripes can achieve any goal, passion, or pursuit. The creative for the WHOOP “The Best Obsess” campaign showcases the deep commitment of some of the world’s high performers including rock climber Alex Honnold, Whole30 co-founder and CEO Melissa Urban, the most decorated swimmer of all time, Michael Phelps, leading entrepreneur Steven Bartlett and Liverpool football star Virgil Van Dijk. Each of these key leaders openly discuss their personal obsession with their performance by leveraging insights from WHOOP, allowing them to be the best version of themselves.

“At WHOOP, we’ve always wanted our brand and community to be synonymous with great physical, professional, and personal achievements,” said John Sullivan, Senior Vice President of Marketing, WHOOP. “Our members are motivated, goal-oriented, some may even say they’re obsessed. They want a better understanding of themselves, their health, and their potential and WHOOP gives them the science to get there. This dynamic is core to WHOOP because obsession, when thoughtfully harnessed, leads to change.”

As a human performance coach that helps people unlock their potential, WHOOP leads members to actionable pathways to directly control their health, whether that’s by working out more, working out less, getting more rest, or trying a breathing exercise. From elite athletes to health-conscious consumers, WHOOP members share the common interest of having an obsession with health and wellness, something that is a positive force in helping people improve.

“I became obsessed with wanting to be the best, and the best me that I possibly could be,” said world champion swimmer Michael Phelps. “I think I probably obsessed on the small details more than I could have ever imagined, and those are the small things that ended up helping out the most.”

Campaign assets will appear globally across TV and paid media, as well as WHOOP marketing channels including social media, email and PR.
