Why isn't my S Health pedometer counting?

S Health pedometer stops counting

I recently got a Galaxy S5 and turned on the S Health pedometer. I love the convenience of this app, but I've noticed that the pedometer will abruptly stop counting steps for long periods, multiple times a day. When I've searched for this issue, I haven't seen other people posting this complaint, so I wonder if it's unique to my particular app or device.
