I had an Apple watch for about 2 years in total a few years ago and didn’t even look at the fitness stuff ?. Has this always been on there ??‍♂️.
yes, it's something apple has been doing since the original Apple Watch, given that it is a health focused device, it makes total sense :)

OPEN QUESTION: I work out five days a week, on my treadmill for 45 min at 3MPH. A good brisk walk, heart rate’s up, the works. Depending on the day it might record a 45 min workout, or a 30 min one, one day last week it said I worked out for 12 minutes. I can find no rhyme or reason for what it thinks I did. But I do the same thing every day. Any ideas WTF might be going on? My AW6 never did this. the AW10 I have now didn’t either, until a few weeks ago.
Make sure you are doing an indoor walk workout and not just general weight lifting or general cardio. I believe the workout is calculated based on heart rate in some cases. Instead of just treating the entire session like a workout, it only calculates heart rate above a certain threshold to count towards exercise.

This is based off personal experience and I have no data to back this up. Good luck

Honestly I think I have only looked at that app about twice ? since owning it over the years. I wish Apple would do a cheaper Apple Watch without all the health features, all I used mine for was telling the time and notifications ??.
Apple already does that (not cheaper) and it’s called an iPhone, which you already own. There saved you USD 300 ?
