Apple watch step detection on walking pad

Hi,

I bought a walking pad. This is a treadmill at walking speed. I will use it when I am working at my standing desk. My question is: Will my apple watch still count my steps? My hands will be typing on my keyboard and thus not detecting movement.

Is there any workaround? Can you put it in your pants pocket to detect steps or would you advise to put it off and use your iphone instead? If so, will it be added to your activity overview?


thanks!
