Are you using different apps for your workouts, which then sync their data with the Health app?

The Apple Watch will only count steps, if a movement of your arm is detected. Without this movement, the watch will not count steps, for example if you are pushing a shopping cart.

If you are taking your iPhone with you, only the Apple Watch will add the daily steps to the Fitness App.
