Apple Watch Ultra incorrectly pauses during exercise

Hi -- When you press both buttons on your Apple Watch Ultra the exercise "pauses." This is a problem because I enjoy sports like surfing and yoga where I'm in a push up position and naturally my hand and forearm hit both buttons at the same time pausing the workout. Any ideas on how to solve this? Thanks!

Try reversing the watch, wearing the crown away from your wrist.

Change the straps and then change the watch orientation


From your iPhone>Watch>General>Watch Orientation>


This is what I do in the winter for wearing gloves.
