No or Incorrect Heart Rate in Activity App

There seems to be a bug in the Activity App when it comes to Heart Rate data. I have been using my Apple Watch series 2 when I work out (Crossfit). I select the Workout app and using the high intensity selection to track the workout start to finish. After the workout I use the Activity app on my iPhone (iPhone 6) to confirm my heart rate through out the workout. When I check the Activity App and look for the work out, the time, calorie and average heart rate is there, but the heart rate chart is unavailable or has limited data (the average heart rate). When you go into the Health App and check vitals, heart rate, show all data, all the raw heart rate data is there. Why is the Activity not including this data?

Update to this post. I found an incorrect heart beat number (27492) in the heart data. Once I removed this data point, the graph in the Activity display for the workout corrected itself and all the data was there. In addition, I am using an external heart rate monitor (Scosche RHYTHM+ Heart Rate Monitor with Armband Orange Theory Version) to collect my heat rate data, not my apple watch. I find the data collected by the apple watch to not be accurate during high intensity workouts. I synced the Scosche monitor to my watch via bluetooth and then using the watch started/stopped the workout. See the image below for more details....
