Issues with step count and heart rate while hiking

Had issues with step count and heart rate on a hike today with my Fenix 6s pro. Missed about 5,000 steps and my average heart rate most definitely was not 99 while going up 1900 feet. We stopped several times to loosen and tighten the watch, and cleaned the sensor on the watch several times to no avail. Hubby also has a Garmin and his has always been accurate, but my old Fitbit did so much better on hikes. And I have no issues with steps or heart rate when I run or walk, which I do daily. Any advice on what else I can try to improve hiking accuraccy
