Through applications like Activity and Health, Apple Watch can help you keep track of each workout or activity you complete, as well as record important data. However, it is possible to record an exercise by accident or to have a duplicate session kept in the app.

In some cases, there is a simple way to remove that data from your record to minimize misunderstanding; you can do so with your iPhone, but not with your Apple Watch.

Here’s how to remove an exercise on Apple Watch if outdated workouts are cluttering your records or you want to eliminate a specific workout data.

How to delete a workout from the Activity app?

On your iPhone, open the Activity/Fitness application. In the history tab, you’ll see a list of workouts. You cannot, however, erase the workout from there. To do so, go to the Workouts tab at the bottom of the screen and select it. Read also : What is the Red Dot on Apple Watch and How to Remove It

Please note that the exercises tab will only appear if you have enough data in the Activity app to anticipate your patterns. If you don’t see the workouts tab, look in the summary tab for a list of workouts (refer to the screenshot below). To erase a workout from the Activity app, follow the steps outlined below.

How to delete a workout from the Health app?

Show More can be found next to the Workouts section.
Slide the workout you wish to eliminate to the left. Then press the red Delete key.

If you wish to remove the workout data from the Health app as well, tap Delete Workout & Data.
If you only want to erase the workout data from the Activity app, select Delete Workout Only.
The workout data will be permanently removed once you tap one of the alternatives, and the adjustments will sync to your Apple Watch.

How to delete a workout from the Health app?

Scroll down and select Show All Data from the drop-down menu.
Swipe left to eliminate the workout you don’t want. The red Delete button should be pressed.

Choose one of the following options:

If you want to delete the health data associated with this workout, select Delete Workout & Data.
If you only want the workout to be removed from the Health app, tap Delete Workout Only.
As previously stated, tapping one of the alternatives will erase the exercise data and sync the adjustments to your Apple Watch.
