exercise ring issue IOS10

I update my Apple Watch series 8 to IOS 10 and my exercise rings have gone hay wire. Since Monday I have done around 1,400 minutes of exercise each day according to the watch and the Exercise App but I have only ever achieved 124kCal each day! I have tried restarting the watch but it doesn’t seem to have made any difference! Help

Apple Watch Series 2, watchOS 4

The first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:

If that doesn't help, the next steps would be to unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup just created. This should result in no loss of data. It deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.
