I just got an Apple watch last week. I found that when I do my morning push ups and sit ups (four sets of each total) that the watch registers that I have taken a lot of steps, like about 2,500. I was wondering if I start a workout if it will not log this movement as steps. If I do log this workout, what should I log it as, core training, mixed cardio, functional training, strength training, or something else?
Thanks,
Mike
If you go into the workout app and scroll down to the botton and tap "add workout" an enormous list of workouts comes on screen,I haven't checked but there may be a workout for push ups etc and if there isnt there should be a very similar one that you could choose instead and failing this there is also a workout type called "other" that you could use.

I've looked through the "Add Workout" list and there is no push ups or sit ups category. I asked a friend at work and he suggested the strength training category.

Yes that would be a close match to what you are after.Good luck with your watch.
