Action progress bars no longer are interrupted when a new action is added to a Sim's queue.
Fixed in Patch 1.68.154/ 1.33

I'm having the same problem. I can't finish any activity that takes a long time to complete (such as entering video game tournaments, studying for a test or tinkering at the robotics station) without my sims doing random push-ups and stretching. I wasn't paying attention to the NAPs that were active, but I noticed that it probably started after the fitness related NAP was voted in my neighbourhood. I already cheat repealed it and now there isn't any active NAP. I updated the game to the newest patch (1.65.70) thinking it would solve it but it keeps occuring. It's making the game unplayable.
I notice this type of behavior a lot when it comes to food, though I feel it happens more for inactive sims. Whether it's eating or even preparing something, my sims seem to have a habit of just not finishing. I'm constantly seeing plates of unfinished food sitting around, and sometimes I even find plates of food in their inventory. Then I've seen times where I command the active sim to cook something, and then if I switch to another sim the one that was cooking just stops to do something else.
Earlier while playing I commanded a sim to make herself a meal, and while she was preparing I switched to another sim to check their needs. When I switched back to the one that was supposed to be cooking, they were eating something else and had left a cutting board on the counter because they stopped cooking. I've thrown two wedding events since the recent updates, and in both events even the caterer has just stopped what they were cooking to hang out as if they were a guest.
I'm playing on the PS4, no expansions or anything though I do have the latest update.
