I am an ambulatory wheelchair user. On occasion I visit a place where I cannot take my wheelchair.
Anyone choosing to decry a historic venue that cannot be made ADA compliant, stop reading. Such responses are unwelcome. Besides, medical counseling indicates that I should walk some every day.
My series 8 watch properly records push motions when wheeling manually, but a 100 meter walk with trekking poles gets ignored by the same watch.
How do I get the watch to recognize this movement?

I have this issue too. Been an off-on ambulatory wheelchair user and just accepted my watch would give me any credit for walking/standing.
You may need to just use both 🫠
I totally understand. This is something my son will encounter in the near future, so I did some research. My hypothesis was that we could use a shortcut to hot swap between wheelchair mode and not.
Looks like that doesn’t exist yet - but this shortcut in this post could be useful - https://www.reddit.com/r/wheelchairs/comments/14a3ek1/tip_apple_watch_shortcut_for_ambulatory_users/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
