Exercise ring

My Apple Watch doesn’t recognize the “rowing” exercise as an exercise. Every time I finish it doesn’t contribute to my exercise ring. Is there a way to change this?

Exercise Rings and Cycling on Apple Watch I started outdoor cycling and starting on the watch. However, the exercise ring does not update and it appears the active calories are off. For Instance, today I cycled for 41 minutes with average HR of 136 and got zero exercise minutes on the ring and only 62 active calories. This happens with cycling every time but no other type of exercise. Anyone got a solution? BTW, when I tap on the Activity rings on the watch, it does show the Outdoor Cycle as a workout. Thanks

my apple watch isn't closing my exercise ring even though I started and ended a workout. how do I correct this? I noticed that recently when I start and end a workout on my Apple watch it does not close my ring. It captures the specifics during the workout but just not for the sake of closing the ring. example I did an indoor walk today for 35 mins and the green exercise ring has zero.
