Yea, certainly true, but I also remember our discussions here that the monthly challenges were increasing every month, not allowing for rest days etc. So Apple “softened” them, now for some of us they aren’t challenges anymore …
I keep my fingers crossed that watchOS 26 will bring some changes though I haven’t seen postings of that from the beta testers ;(

Yes, back in the day our monthly challenges increased every month but our endurance and fitness levels also increased. My view is that only professional athletes and weightlifters/body builders need rest days. Sleep recovery is very important to everyone but even at my age now, I don't find any of it a challenge anymore. It's disappointing but I can live with it😂😂

Yea, I certainly agree that the 14 times this or that are not a challenge for me, and I know that you are a little ahead of me in the age race ;)
Some "set your own goals" option would be good but then again, badges don't really do anything for me anyways ;)

have you setup your profile in the Health app? I think that's where it gets the birthdate from

It grabs it from the contacts app on My Card

I tried from the health app and it doesn’t work so set your birthdate in the contacts app on your iPhone
