Cardio Fitness no longer updating in the Health App on my Apple Watch Series 7

In December the Cardio Fitness stopped logging in the Health app even though nothing had changed (as far as I am aware) and I have done similar workouts to when it did log the fitness rating.

I have tried checking all the necessary boxes are checked and everything seems correct. The phone and iWatch are up to date on software updates and in order to try and resolve this I have reset my phone completely. Additionally, I have unpaired and re-paired the iWatch and phone - made no difference and I have also reset my watch completely too. None of this has made any difference.

Can anyone offer any potential solutions to this issue? Thanks.

There are only three workouts that calculate cardio fitness

  • Outdoor run
  • Outdoor walk
  • Hiking

Doing a "similar" workout like indior run or outdoor cycling will not do it.


Also iPhone, Settings, [tap your name], iCloud, show all, is Health turned on?

You would think the apple product manager would demand robust features after all these years, after the introduction of cardio fitness measurement on watch. Adding indoor running and elliptical workout cardio fitness seems like a no brainer.
