My Apple Watch Ultra keeps pausing during my swim

So my Ultra watch keeps pausing during my swim with only hitting the quick access button to the workout app. No 2 button holding required. How do I stop this as it is ruining my workouts. I tried turning off the pause feature and no difference was made

Difficulty stopping timer during lap swimming on Apple Watch 10 Ultra Currently when I finish a swim I have to eject water from watch before I can stop the swim timer. When stopping at end of deep pool, having to hold railing with one hand and ejecting water with other hand, then trying to swipe across screen to stop the timer with wet hands, it can take 15 seconds or more. Is there a way to stop the timer when swim finished and then eject water and close off the swim? This is very annoying when trying to lower and record swim times during training. Thinking of buying a new watch just for swimming! [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Apple Watch Ultra 2 - Disable pause via the action button and the crown during a workout Hi, I'm using my Apple Watch Ultra 2 (10.3.1) for outdoor workouts but unintentional pressing of the action button and crown pauses my exercise without me realizing it which is really annoying. I would like to continue to use action button to launch workout app and make interval but I want to disable the pause action in the native workout app. Is it possible ?
