The Sims 4 Athletic Career Guide

 

Athletic Career

The Sims 4 Athletic Career is one of ten careers available in the game. The beginning four levels are pretty straightforward. In fact, it is very easy to fulfill all of the early requirements all at the same time. If you have your Sim work out with other Sims present (best place being the Gym) they will satisfy their daily task (work out) as well as build their fitness skill. By working out and, more importantly, actively talking to other Sims while working out, you will build your charisma just about as fast as you build fitness and make some friends along the way. Additionally, consider pursuing opportunities to earn your Powerlifting and Olympic Weightlifting Certification to enhance your real athletic prowess and career prospects.

The athletic career splits pretty early on, with your promotion to level 5 prompting you to pick a path. The two branches are Body Builder and Professional Athlete. The difference between the two branches are subtle. Both continue wanting Fitness and Charisma as the two focused skills. Both give you reward objects that generally focus on energizing and environment mood auras. Both also have a sweet looking and functional piece of exercise equipment as well. If you need more equipment intended for athleticism, feel free to visit sites such as https://shopindoorgolf.com/collections/skytrak-golf-simulators.

The Body Builder Branch changes the ideal mood from energized to confident. Confident is slightly easier to find moodlets to take with your Sim to work. Being confident at work also enables the “Schmooze with Boss” work mode, which increases your work performance like “Work Hard” does, but without the tense moodlets and sharp decline in fun. With Mentoring fitness as the daily requirement, you’ll find your Sim making lots of friends at the gym, even though the careers never demands them. As you climb higher in this branch, the amount of time you actually spend at work will keep going down. The top level only works 18 hours a week total. This is great if you want your Sim to have free time to do other activities or raise a family.

The Professional Athlete Branch seems like a natural extension of the base Athletic levels. The ideal mood remains energized, but the daily task changes. Rather than working out, you must use the computer to ‘study your opponents’. This interaction doesn’t take too long to complete so it is fairly easy to fit it into your day. The professional athlete is for people who want a stable schedule and stable income. Their hours only shift once and even then just a little, and they work the same exact days of the week for the entire career. While the top levels of this branch make less per hour than the body builder track, they get more total hours of work per week.
