Measuring continuous heart rate without using HKWorkoutSession?

I'm writing a Watch app where we have an in-built protocol for measuring resting heart rate. The user taps start and the heart rate is measured for 30 minutes while they're lying down. It works well, but because I'm using HKWorkoutSession to do this, the green exercise ring is advancing by 30 minutes even though the user is not exercising.

So, any way to get continuous heart rate measurements without using HKWorkoutSession?

This topic was discussed quite a bit here. Feel free to follow up if your have further questions after reading the post.
