There is a specific wheelchair workout type, but in general there are two types of workout:

Ones using gps distance, time, heart beat, age, weight, height, gender.

And ones using time, heart beat, age, weight, height, gender but without distance.

Some like swimming can detect types of stroke but in general they estimate effort in calories and time for your build snd the types of workout help you keep track of what workout types you did.

I doubt if yoga and taichi and weight training give different effort results if the time and heart rate are the same.
