Workout app on iWatch not syncing

Hi there, my workout data is recorded but the Exercise (green) ring on the activity app doesn't recognise that I've exercised. I've walked for 30 mins but the green ring says 10 mins of exercise. How is that so?

I don't see this option on my phone either. I've seen this suggestion posted all over the place, no one has posted a screenshot of where this option actually is. I've tried everything and this is the most aggravating problem. Why is there not a "sync" button somewhere? Anywhere? The system is clearly not full proof, not even a reboot of all devices involved fixes this problem.
