QALO Takes on WHOOP with the Subscription-Free SL-1 Smart Band
· Reported by The Barbell Spin
QALO started out as a silicone ring company, but with the release of its second wearable it appears they are going after WHOOP and the screenless fitness and health tracker market. Yesterday, QALO announced the launch of the QALO SL-1 Smart Band. The Smart Band joins the QALO Smart Ring in its wearable fitness tracker line. Where the Smart Ring can get in the way of high intensity training, especially with a barbell, dumbbells or a pull-up bar, the Smart Band can be worn during these types of activities.
