Missing heart rate during Workouts.

Recently my watch has stopped recording my heart rate during workouts. There is a blank area where the chart has been in the past it consistently states there is not enough data. Any suggestions on how to get this important feature back.

The first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:

If that doesn't help, the next steps would be to unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup just created. This should result in no loss of data. It deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.
