See the "Make sure that you earn Move and Exercise credit" section in:
Get the most accurate measurements using your Apple Watch - Apple Support
You should also make sure your watch is calibrated:

However when on a treadmill, if you are holding onto a handrail the watch has no way to know how many steps you are taking.

I have heard that some people strap the watch to their ankle while on treadmill or riding a bike. I'm not sure if it will still monitor heart rate though. You will just have to try and see if it works for you.
Great answer, thanks! Any suggestions on how I can put the Watch on my body so I can keep holding on (for dear life, when I’m on a treadmill)?
Thanks so much!
You're welcome.
