Standing up on my new Apple Watch

My new Apple Watch measures standing up time wrong. I woke up and lied in bed for 1 hour, and it counted it as a standing up hour. I spend most of my time sitted on my desk, but it measures more than 6 hours standing up. That is completely wrong. How can I fix it?

Apple Watch activities measurement I find the “stand” duration measurement inaccurate. It seems to give inflated durations. For eg I wake up at 5.30 AM and return home by 6 PM. It is already showing 11 hours of standing which is obviously wrong as I sit for a significant part of the day. Any suggestions?

Weird standing time calculation by Apple Watch Hi! Super happy owner of an Apple Watch 7. I seem to be having a lot more time as standing than I actually do. And I came across this example with pretty much shows it: not even 20 minutes into a new day I already have 1 hour standing. How can that be? Thanks in advance!

Apple Watch standing hours not counted. I have a standing desk and Apple Watch constantly fails to count these hours towards my standing goal. Please allow manual adding them especially when the automatic algorithms fail that simple.

Try unpairing and re-pairing and setup as new.
