Apple Watch Ultra incorrectly pauses during exercise

Hi -- When you press both buttons on your Apple Watch Ultra the exercise "pauses." This is a problem because I enjoy sports like surfing and yoga where I'm in a push up position and naturally my hand and forearm hit both buttons at the same time pausing the workout. Any ideas on how to solve this? Thanks!

There's a setting in the workout part of the Watch app on the iPhone. You can turn off both auto pause and the pause from pressing the two side buttons together. However, I find if I press all 3 buttons on the Ultra that is still pauses....
