I have an applewatch 5. I went for an outdoor walk and clicked on the "workout app" (the green fitness icon) and set it to "outdoor walk" but it didn't count as exercise? Why not? I walked for 35 minutes, got my heartrate up and then clicked "done" when my walk was complete. I'm ****** I'm not completing my rings...
