Greetings Lashanriver,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We suggest calibrating your Apple Watch to improve the accuracy of the steps taken. To do so:
1.While wearing your Apple Watch, go to a flat, open outdoor area that offers good GPS reception and clear skies.
2.If you have Apple Watch Series 2 or later, you just need your Apple Watch. If you have Apple Watch Series 1 or earlier, bring your iPhone for GPS. Hold your iPhone in your hand, or wear it on an armband or waistband.
3.Open the Workout app. To start, tap Outdoor Walk or Outdoor Run. To set a goal before starting, tap.
4.Walk or run at your normal pace for about 20 minutes.
Complete details on calibrating your Apple Watch are found in the Apple Support article:

Let us know if you have any questions.
Have a great day!
