When I walk on my treadmill with my surge watch on,  my watch will not record the correct mileage. The treadmill is correct when I walk 7 miles a day but my watch says I walked 1.9 miles. I have a bad back and hold on a lot while walking at the speed 35 and the elevation at 10.( all the way up). So, is there some setting where my watch will record the correct mileage.?

Welcome to the forums!

 

When holding on the wrist models will not count steps. It needs to see the arms swinging.

 

Some put in the pocket or wear on the ankle. But t will never match what the tread mill says as the stride is different.
