Strength Tracking

Yesterday my watch tracked a chest workout when I worked shoulders. Today it tracked a back workout when I worked chest. How is this?

It “guesses” based on body movement. Really, how much different is the general movement of a bent over row compared to a bench press for a wrist based watch? Or a shoulder press compared to an incline bench press? The watch surely can’t tell the difference in many cases. Now, if it confuses a bench press with a squat, that would be crazy.

I have a gym app to track what I’ve really done, and I seldom even pay attention to what the watch thinks I’ve done during a workout after three years working out with it on.

The watch will try to match your movement pattern to an exercise but it can go wrong if you move in a way that matches another exercise.

On which arm are you wearing the watch and have you set that same arm in your settings on the watch?

Just change the sets in Connect and be done.
