activity no longer tracks heart rate.

I had an Apple Watch 2. When I did an activity (walk or run), it automatically gave me heart rate data. My new watch 7 doesn’t do that. What setting do I enable, please. Thanks

Apple Watch Series 7, watchOS 8

When you use the Workout app, Apple Watch measures your heart rate continuously during the workout and for 3 minutes after the workout ends to determine a workout recovery rate. If you don't see your heart rate, check your settings.

If you turn on Power Saving Mode during a walking or running workout, the heart rate sensor turns off. To see if Power Saving Mode is off or on, open Settings on your Apple Watch, then tap Workout. You can also find this setting in the Apple Watch app on your iPhone.
