Doesn’t count calories correctly

The apple series 5 doesn’t count calories correctly compared to my older Apple Watch. I haven’t changed my workout. I checked my health app. I restored it, I backed it up, I unpaired it...I pretty much did everything and it’s still incorrect. Anyone else have this issue? And was it resolved?

Apple watch not calories mistake Hey, I have apple watch 3 And I noticed that it tracks my calories wrong. At first it stopped tracking so I turned off and turned on my watch and It kinda fixed. But now I noticed that when I do workouts my total calories is starting from 101 calories burned instead of 0. What should I do?

Apple Watch series 7 calories burned too low Just upgraded to a series 7 and the calorie count (total calories) for my workouts is about 200 less on my new watch compared to my old Apple Watch. My old watch reading da were def correct as I’ve tested them against numerous other devices and gym equipment. I’ve checked everything advised to fix online, health app data correct, HR is reading correctly, calories are selected (not kj), selecting correct workout, calibrated, wrist detection and location services on and still no difference. When I compare my workouts history, just a simple Watch upgrade has now resulted in my calories burned being significantly less. Anyone else having these issues?

Showing a total calorie count amount as soon as I start a workout Started a workout this morning on my apple watch SE and as soon as the timer counted down to begin there were already 48 Total Calories showing...I hadn't even moved. I restarted the watch and tried again but it did the same thing. How do I fix this?
