You're not moving fast enough for it it count.


Going by your heart rate you are working at it!

To get exercise minutes to count you may always use the workout type "Other"

That way all you do will count towards your green exercise goal no matter how fast you move.


Also make sure that your information in your health app is correct.

Height, weight, age and sex.
