Finally figured it out! On the iPhone, open the Fitness app, then tap Workout at the bottom. All the workouts will be listed. Tap & hold, and it gives you the option to hide. You can't delete, but you can hide. I hope this helps someone else!

If you tap the Workout icon on your watch so that you can see the workout types, then scroll right down to the bottom until you can see the + symbol. Click on the +, you should then see options to “Add Workout” and “Edit your Workouts”. Underneath you’ll see all the currently displayed workouts, swipe from right to left to delete them. Not the most intuitive design, but hope this helps!

On the Fitness App on the iPhone that you use with this watch, select Workout (it is at the bottom of screen), then go to the workout category that you want to remove and swipe left to delete it. I have a Series 11, not a Series 12, but this works with my Series 11.

Things must have changed in series 12. Yes, I can open the workouts, but the only thing I can do is add a workout. Thanks anyway!
