Athlete Career
An athlete requires physical strength, endurance and intelligence. Start a career where enthusiastic fans will shout your name, wear your jersey and remember your feats forever.
The Athlete Career is one of the most social jobs in The Sims 4. When your Sim is training they can socialize with people at home or better, make new friends if you go to the gym in your neighborhood. So max out your Fitness Skill that is needed for both the Bodybuilder Branch and the Professional Athlete Branch and skill up your Charisma.
There are a lot of CAS (Create a Sim) Outfits as rewards you can obtain with this career path like the Cheerleader Outfit or a Llama Costume! Collect a lot of Trophies too and show them off to your friends.
Daily Task: Work Out
There are a few ways to complete this daily task. Use workout equipment or go for a jog. This is easy to complete because you will level up your Fitness Skill at the same time. Try to make your Sim Energized to speed up the proses to level up your Fitness Skill. When your Sims is Energized you can also click on the ground to do some push ups, stretch or do sit ups to complete this task.
