In this episode of the WHOOP Podcast, WHOOP Founder and CEO Will Ahmed sits down with Quest Diagnostics CEO Jim Davis to discuss the partnership behind WHOOP Advanced Labs. Will and Jim discuss how combining blood biomarkers with continuous physiological data is reshaping consumer health. Will and Jim explore how trends in metrics like cholesterol, glucose, sleep, and recovery can drive more personalized, actionable insights and help shift healthcare from reactive to preventative. Jim shares his personal approach to health tracking, Quest's vision for democratizing lab testing, and leadership lessons from running a 50,000+ employee organization. Jim gets candid about his “obsession” with his WHOOP data and his advice for managing stress and staying focused on long-term health habits.
