Do your sims jog to slim down? Get centered with yoga? Shoot hoops for fun? Swim, box, climb or spar?

As usual, it completely depends on the sim, but most of mine who aren't fitness or yoga fanatics will only do it every once in a while to stay in shape. I also have very fat sims who are supposed to stay that way and don't exercise at all.

I'll do it if it's in character but mostly I do it for the game play. Like it's fun going for a jog with (or without) the dog. I love watching the animations and how they notice everything. I enjoy looking at the world also and sometimes noticing new things from that perspective. Still haven't jogged in every hood but whenever I get a new pack I try to send my sims jogging to look around that way.Really enjoy using the training bot and sparring, also working out to the television .. cute and funny, and yoga is standard for some of my sims. The other tried and true stuff is good too (treadmill, punching bag, workout machine) but I rarely send my sims to the gym. I keep meaning to download a gym or something that has the climbing wall. I don't use it because it breaks outside with Seasons and I'm too lazy or forgetful to set up a safe place for it.The new swimming animations makes it not even seem like your sim is excercising... it's just fun to do. They've made it enjoyable and I use it frequently..

My sims are very fit and exercise a few times a week.

I usually always do the Bodybuilder aspiration as one of the first.

Yes, they eventually end up fit once I give them the gym rat trait, best fun they can have. I've also started off with fat sims lately so I can put them on a salad diet and make them work out. Fun goal. If only it was as easy in real life. xD

Only if it's necessary for their job. Personally, I'm against exercise. Oh, I know what the so-called experts suggest, but I lost weight simply by following WW. I do climb my stairs several times a day, however. So, I'm not exercise free. (My physician would be glad to hear that, at least.) So why would I inflict the 'necessary evil' on my Sims? :* o:) :#

When my sims have earnt enough they usually have workout equipment in their homes so they can fit it around their skill and family life activities a little easier than going to they gym. But working out has fun animations (I love jogging especially). It is also a nice way to interact with other sims. My sims often join Powerhouse as much for the fun aspect as the fitness aspect of the club. It is the easiest way to get a sims fun up and do something useful eg. jog on treadmill while watching TV. I really wish there were more "fun" sports and fitness activities for sims eg. frisbee or kicking a ball around together.

I only remember to make them exercise when I see them gaining weight. I always have an in home gym but don't use it regularly. Right now I have a pretty chubby toddler that I think I'm over feeding lol

I send my sims on jogs. It's really easy, doesn't take too long, and... Sims walk slow. It annoys me. Get their fitness up a little and they can "Jog Here." I make my sims exercise so they can jog across the house instead of meander.

My sims do it almost daily, but rarely in the gym. I prefer yoga and swimming.

Depends on a sim completely (all of the options).

It depends on the sim. Some exercise daily and others less than once a week.

They go jogging whenever they start getting fat.

All my sims work out most days of the week in a variety of different ways - sometimes just with the tv work out or go to the gym or wellness gym even . I keep fit sim - not overly muscular though. My Sims meditate a bit after dinner as well be fore bed for a few minutes on most work days too.
