iPhone Health App Steps Not Syncing with Watch Fitness Steps?

I forgot my Apple Watch this morning and just had my phone for half the day. I was able to get over 5k steps that showed up in the Health app on my phone. I was able to pickup my watch at lunch and thought at least the step count would sync with my Watch in Fitness but they aren't. It seems like this would happen in the past. Anything I'm forgetting or a quick way to force them to sync? Using iPhone 12 Pro Max iOS on 16.0.2 / Apple Watch SE 1st gen on 9.1.

Steps recorded on the iphone only may not show up in the red rings because Fitness app is expecting input from the Watch.
