Do your sims exercise?

Only by accident or if it's a job requirement


I don't stop them if they do it autonomously but my sims rarely gain weight as they only eat garden salad or fruit salad.

Depends on the Sim. I have a household of four: one exercises as part of military career, one does it to keep herself super skinny, one does it to keep fit. The fourth person does not exercise at all. But they might do yoga at some point, depending on her storyline.

Honestly, my sims only exercise when they want to. I have some sims that work out on their own and other sims that don't. I never make them.

idk I haven't really entered fat sim scenario yet
mostly its just dude sims exercising though
because sims get kind of unrealistically buff from just doing some light boxing
and I don't fancy the look on my female sims so much
(body building just aint their thing they all nerds)

I only make them exercise so I can watch them. But sometimes I aim for my sims to gain weight so I can start them exercising.

I think there are still some activities we need in the game. Trampoline, rope skipping, surfing, even gymnastics. I'm glad they brought back sparring with Strangerville, although I wish it wasn't exclusively tied to the military career. Can't even do it if you're ex-military.

It depends on their traits, but most of the time I only have them exercise if they start gaining weight. One of the sims I'm playing right now is active and in the athletic career so he exercises a lot but most of my other sims don't as often as he does.

I only start doing it when they have the Bodybuilder aspiration or if it's a job requirement because I find that it's really easy to increase the Fitness skill and even if my sims have already maxed it out, they still continue to use the treadmill even if they don't have much use from it anymore.

It happens, but not very often... Have been thinking to let them exercise more, but unless there is a work out machine in the same room, I keep forgetting... The only exceptions are sims with Athlete aspirations.

Yeah when my sims that I want skinny start getting pudgy its time to break out the treadmill or atleast give them a diet.
Recently my vampire sim started packing on abunch of weight, didn't even know that could happen. I was just trying to make a bunch of enemies via forcibly drinking sims and Count Dracula became Count Fatula
