workout keeps pausing during bike rides. Why?

Usually when on a mountain bike ride I’ll stop to take pictures or talk to someone or have a drink break and the work out will pause if it it’s more than say a minute or so but recently the workout will pause during movement for no reason then I’ll finish my 10 mile workout and it will only show one or 2 miles because it paused for no apparent reason

Anyone else having this issue? Any solutions?

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?
