Manually entering workouts when forgetting to turn watch on

Why did you take away the ability to add workouts by type from the health app? I could only enter calories or steps in activity but I did a functional work out and forgot to turn on my watch. Previously, you could add workout data and choose the time, the type of activity and calories.
