Apple Watch activity calorie counts

I do strength training sessions where I am expending 300 calories in 50 minutes however my watch only records 65. It’s difficult to close my move ring. Is there a way to update the activity counts?

Apple Watch Series 6, watchOS 7

Apple Watch not tracking Callories correctly I have noticed that my watch has suddenly decreased the number of calories being counted. I can do a 30 minute workout which used to burn 400 calories, it now just tracks 80 calories. I have tried recalibrating etc per other suggestions but nothing is working

Calories aren’t tracking on my watch Hi, I’ve had my Apple Watch since December and I absolutely love it although it’s never tracked my moving calories. I could do a 45 minute HITT workout and it only shows that I’ve burned 12 active calories or a 5K run and 7 active calories, which definitely isn’t accurate. Ant suggestions on how to fix it apart from unpairing my watch from my phone and checking or checking settings and the motion fitness because they are all turned on. Thank you:)
