Aerobics workout on Samsung health app on phone but not in active 2 watch

[Comet1]

I can't find aerobics as a workout on the active 2 watch. It is on Samsung health. Is there a way to add it? I would have thought the workouts on the watch would match the app

Thanks for the information, that's a quick fix

Yes I reset other workouts to aerobics and did not get updated change.

I misspoke, your calories dont change because your watch already has the accurate count. Calories burned are based off of your heart rate. The different catagories are just there to track your progress based off of your excercises. Think of it like 1 slice of pizza is 350 calories and a 4 oz steak and brocolli are 350 calories..... same calorie intake different meal.

Samsung doesn't use heart rate though. When I select the other workout option from my watch, I burn 20 calories every 5 min, regardless of the workout. Its extremely inaccurate.

Thank you for posting.  Whilst a shame aerobics or HIT it's not on the watch itself, it did correct the exercise on the app as you instructed.

I have the aqua arobics workout as a favourite on my samsung health app but it won't show on my samsung active 2 watch, how do I get it to show on my watch, I can't take my phone in the pool
