Apple watch 7 41 mm vs 45 mm - huge difference for same exercise

I have two apple watches small size and big size.

I do same exercise of yoga every day.

I used the 45mm bugger size for 1 week and it showed near to 300 kCal burnt every day (approx)

Now I used the smaller size for same exercise for 1 week and it has almost 80 to 100 kCal lower than the bigger size.

That make me think that the calories burnt is not even accurate.

Any thoughts please?

Apple Watch total calories difference Does anyone know why the total calories on certain days can differ from other days, even if the activities undertaken and the active calories burned are practically the same? It’s not even close, it’s grossly dissimilar. I obviously suspect the 14 Feb calculation is the accurate one, but it’s annoying there’s such a difference, unless of course there’s some metabolic reasoning to this - willing to hear any suggestions! Thanks.

Apple Watch Move active calorie measurements inaccurate (too high) My Apple Health/Fitness apps are reporting much higher active calories burned than expected. For example, I work in an office and have very little activity while at work. Today it is showing that I have less than 3,000 steps, but have burned almost 400 active calories. Additionally, I have my Apple Health app linked to MyFitnessPal. In MyFitnessPal, I'm showing that my daily calorie adjustment for burned calories is only 45 calories. Why are Health/Fitness apps showing such higher calories burned than expected while MyFitnessPal is only showing 45? And where are the 45 calories coming from?

Apple Watch resting calories My Apple Watch is estimate for my resting calories or BMR is different each day. To my understanding, the BMR is supposed to be a constant number unless there are changes in your weight. They aren’t just slight changes either, I’m talking hundreds of calories of differences day to day. My active calories seem accurate enough
