Are you running the current software release, watchOS 7.5 ? Somehow it is showing backlevel V6 for you here.

Update your Apple Watch - Apple Support


If so, try restarting both devices and hopefully Activity works then. One of the conditions is that your personal information has been entered in the Health app:

Manage Health data on your iPhone, iPod touch, or Apple Watch - Apple Support


For the battery drainage issue, it can be caused by many different reasons. There are some suggestions in here:
