Steps/activity not counted at treadmill desk since wrist isn’t moving.

Any tips or setting Ng’s on how much to get Apple Watch to recognize activity on a treadmill desk? Problem is that my wrists are fairly stationary on the desk/keyboard while I am walking. If I wear my watch on my ankle would that throw off the calibration data?

Try using "Other" workout type although this just measures time and calories burnt.
