I have recently started mountain biking as I can no longer run due to a knee injury. I bike with my husband and there is a huge Discrepancy between calories burned between us even though my heart rate has points of climbing. I’m also struggling to register exercise minutes. It’s very frustrating to spend so much $ on a watch and have inaccurate data.

I’ve gone through both of these articles and everything is set. What doesn’t make sense is that it says that exercise minutes are measured based on your heart rate for an active walk. Well I do barre or yoga almost every day and my heart rate does not equal that and my exercise minutes still count and calories are measured.
I guess it’s really frustrating that the workout algorithm for cycling is only for road cyclists. I wish Apple would acknowledge mountain biking. Trust me I was pushing it.
Suggest it here;
That's because barre and yoga uses a different workout algorithm.
Why does mountain biking not register as exercise minutes?
