What’s new in Workout
In the Workout app 
on Apple Watch, watchOS 10 offers several new Workout enhancements. They include the following:
Cycling enhancements. Automatically connect to Bluetooth-enabled accessories to add cadence and power metrics to your workout view.
Workout views on iPhone. When you start a cycling workout from your watch, it automatically shows up as a Live Activity on your iPhone. Tap it, and it will take over the entire display, making it easier to see your metrics while on a ride.
Power Zones. When you connect to a Bluetooth-enabled power meter, you can monitor the intensity of your cycling workouts by viewing Power Zones on your Apple Watch.
Functional threshold power. View estimates of your functional threshold power—the highest level of intensity you can maintain for an hour—in the Health app on iPhone.
New workout views. See important metrics for different training experiences. Turn the Digital Crown for new views of metrics like Power Zones, Cadence, Cycling Power, and Cycling Speed.
Golf enhancements. (Apple Watch Series 8 and Apple Watch Series 9) When you start a golf workout, your watch automatically senses when you’re in a golf cart for more accurate calorie metrics.
See Calibrate your Apple Watch for improved Workout and Activity accuracy for information on how your Apple Watch is calibrated.
