Vivoactive 5 weight settings

I have the app and watch set to kg (which is reflected in my body weight on both) however in the strength section of the watch it only allows input in lbs.. no option to change to kg.

App shows as kg after I have done work out.

Settings show metric which is correct for km/kg...etc.

Can anyone explain how to change this please?

Please hold the bottom right button for 3 seconds > Settings > System > Format > Units > Weight and verify that the device is set to kilograms. When trying to duplicate what you are encountering it switches to KG when that setting is changed. If you do not get the same please verify the software version on your device

Oh yeah I just let it run, I don't go back and add the exercises. Just interested in heart rate and calories. For yoga I especially don't care (I'm a teacher) and for strength my trainer is keeping track of exercises and weights.

Be aware that yoga tracks stress which is really annoying if you are doing a high intensity format.
