”Reach your stand goal 27 times”. Very exciting challenge!
Mine just says, “Stay alive for the month.”
Does my watch know something I don’t?

“Walk or run 4,92 km (3 miles) per day 14 times.”
I guess it’s my punishment for running 5K 1-2 times per week in June.

14 times for me as well. But the goal isn't much of a challenge as I achieve this virtually every day.
Why are some months so easy while others so challenging? I can't figure out Apple's system for coming up with these.
I can’t remember the last time one of my challenges was hard. Fortunately I set my own.
Poor-little side-button + dial (iWatch 6) don't seem to play-party anymore . . . I had to snap an exterior photo.
I live/work in an extremely-labourious industry on-the-daily, but it often seems that the Goals are (on the surface) easy, but obnoxiously difficult to attain (in practice).
Hopefully, the forthcoming AAPL Intelligence will understand, and better-explain things with the Fitness app
Such a wide variation. Is this random ? Mine is ridiculously easy. A weeks worth of walks to the mailbox would do it.
It seems fairly random. Mine one month was bike five times for at least five minutes apiece.
It is random, like I do indoor cycling every day and never gotten a challenge in that
But, up until I guess watchOS 9 the challenges were real, ever increasing and there was lots of complaining on these threads about it, eg you had to hit a move goal every day of the month, say 800, and you beat it, next time it was 850 and so on.
So Apple changed the algorithm and it’s been “easy” ever since…
Best would probably for those who are really wanting to be challenged to have the option to set their own goals (not that you can’t do that anyway
), in the app, so, maybe, maybe watchOS 11 will have a surprise for us…I had thought that an algorithm could look at a persons personal data e.g. age, weight..etc and their activities and present a reasonable challenge based on that. My 5 min walk 5 times this month could be an good start for some people but I can do it walking to the mailbox or from the gym to my car.
Sorry for the duplicate post. I cannot see a way to delete it.

Very random, looking back I used to get a lot like this ~ 4:20 hours exercise a day for the whole month, now I get ones I can cheat and do in 45min on the way to work
Happy to report the first 7 days I’ve filled all my rings. Well on my way to my goal!
