Apple Watch pausing workout after 11 seconds..... ALL THE TIME !!!!

Go to the watch app on the phone and tap on workout,turn off autopause and end workout reminder.

Or on the watch in settings/workout and turn them off there.

Or;

When you start your workout slide right on the screen and tap on lock,then when you finish the workout turn the digital crown in one continuous movement to turn the lock off then slide right again and tap on end.

Tighten the watch band a touch.

Don't wear the watch on top of any tattoos.

Is your sleeve catching on the side buttons or on the screen itself?

I have tried all of the above and it still pauses. I too bought this because of the workouts but can't use them. You say don't wear over tattoos but what if you have tattoos all over your arms. what then. Does this mean that tattoed people can't use the watch. My other problem is that I cannot connect to spotify. Can you help with this.

I also tried all of the above and it keeps pausing. I have no tattoos, no shirts in the way and my watch is fitting well. Is there anything else i can do?
