That’s me to. I take it off to shower as well. Not that you need to, I just prefer to.
Yeah ive never taken mine in the water either, my bands are not waterproof anyways lol.
My Watch only comes off in the late afternoon goes then on the charger shortly after and then the Watch is back on before i go to bed!

Good luck to you!

These frustrate me. I’ve set a daily goal that’s achievable but still requires effort and at least one real workout, but now I’m supposed to double that?
That’s one of the reasons I keep my daily goal low. I double it nearly everyday, but if it takes me 2 hours of exercise to do that, I couldn’t suddenly find 4 hours to double it. I do have a job.

Q for you - does your indoor bike connect to the AW or iPhone for workout recording?
My spin bike is 10+ years old (still living it) and I enter my workouts in the health app and have never ever received an indoor cycling challenge, and that's 90+% of the workouts that I do record.
Clarification: I do start an indoor cycling workout on my AW, and finish it, and it does get recorded as such, I manually add the distance.
I don’t connect it; the bike might have Bluetooth, but I don’t recall off the top of my head. I’ll take a look tonight and let you know.

Just that I’ve done well over 2000 cycling workouts, indoor and outdoor, since I got the S0 in 2015 and never got a cycling workout challenge…

The exercise bike I use doesn’t have Bluetooth at all, evidently. Sorry I can’t be of more help!

Well, maybe you can, how long have you had your AW and how long have you been tracking your cycling workouts? Do you do other type of workouts with your AW?

Only since mid-December. I also track runs (indoor and outdoor), dancing, walking, and elliptical workouts. I first tracked cycling in early January.

Me too. 500kcals. “Perfect” weeks or months wouldn’t make sense otherwise, a rest or very slight exercise day is useful once in a while.

Should be easy... as long as I don't leave the watch on the charger too long. I have had it (AW6) fo a little over 3 years and I need to charge it twice a day. Not a big deal, but if I forget it is on the charger and wander off and do things, then that makes it hard to get the Stand goal. I have done that once already this month.

Thanks. And the next one is 3,250 and it says I have done 2,995 thus far ;). That algorithm is off ;)
and I'm at 2,991 for my longest move streak :)
2,991 Days = 8.1945 Years = 8 Years, 2 Months, 1 Week, 3 Days according to Google
Well that’s an impressive run.
Here I’ve completed my latest do something 14 times challenge from Apple. The only way I feel that is an achievement is if I do it in 14 days!

yea, the 14 times ones are getting old ... those do not motivate me at all, my motivation is that 1. I want to exercise and 2. the longest move streak
