How many times do you have to restart Apple Watch in a day?

I find myself often having to restart my Watch (7 series) 3+ times a day

1st time: Put on Watch in the morning. Ring does not update. Restart.

2nd time: Later in the day, say afternoon, take a Fitness+ class. Activity calorie tracking remains 0. Restart. (I have learned to check to make sure Activity tracking is working a few minutes into the class before continuing)

3rd time: Later in the evening, take another Fitness+ class. Activity tracking is working during the class but Ring does not update. The Watch would even alert me that I have closed my Ring but still.

Is that normal for a $400 piece of wearable tech not even a year into its use???
