Hello, Marsue.

Your Apple Watch Activity rings track how much you move, exercise, and stand from day to day. The individual rings are explained here: Use the Activity app on your Apple Watch. If you wish to change the calorie (or any other goal) on your watch, follow these steps: Change your goals on your Apple Watch.

The Move ring shows how many active calories you've burned so far. Complete your daily Move goal by burning active calories every day. A higher calorie burn requirement will require more movement / exercise to close the ring. Active calories, unlike resting, are ones that you burn by standing or moving around.

Let us know if we can help with anything else at all or if this doesn't settle your issue. Thanks and have a fabulous day!
