I Tested How EVERY Exercise Affects Weight And Muscle In The Sims 4 (So You Don't Have To)

Seriously, every exercise.
Twitch: / peteyplaysit
This guide will take a look at how every exercise that's currently in the game impacts on a sim's weight and muscle tone over time. This is done through a range of experiments looking at the before and after effects of various training methods. Note that all the 'After' results are measured after four in game hours of sustained exercise.

honestly really disappointing of this sims team to give football weight loss + muscle gain but not cheerleading

It makes so much sense now why all my cheerleaders have gained weight instead of losing.

Totally! Also why would they need fitness if cheerleading has no impact on their strength? I feel like they should have made a cheerleading skill and had dance (GT compatible) + fitness + cheerleading as requirement to level up

Seriously! I remember seeing the cheer squad at my school do some INSANELY physical-looking things. Also I'm reminded of an early episode of "Kim Possible"--the second Drakken finds out that Kim is (gasp) A CHEERLEADER, his reaction is basically "Dangit, why couldn't she have been a member of the _chess_ club?" As in, a cheerleader is going to be harder to PHYSICALLY DEFEAT. And based off the real-life ones I've seen...yep, I wouldn't mess with 'em unless I absolutely had to. Kim Possible writers knew what was up, at least.

@sim771 4 ай бұрын

I’ve been saying this for a while now but I think the fitness skill needs an overhaul. It should only be weightlifting, running, biking and stretching that get the sim to level 10 by itself. Also like gourmet cooking, the sports skills should be unlocked when the sims fitness skill is high enough. So the sim will gain general fitness on any object for levels 1-3 and then unlock different skills at which point they would gain sport specific skills. This means a basketball player wouldn’t automatically be amazing at cheer and rock climbing but if they train fitness up, they will be better at everything (boosted skill gain) because strength and endurance are key to any discipline. The sims could then have a bunch of 5 or 10 level skills that they can train as a discipline and read skill books on. It’s much more realistic and more challenging which is really fun.

Its really interesting to see literally all the different forms of losing weight in this game. Like i said in the prequel though, juggling the soccer ball is my favorite as it grants you muscle AND major weight loss within 4-6 hours and its so awesome. In almost every build/household i play, i put a soccer ball somewhere in the house or someone's inventory so as soon as they gain rapid weight, they have an immediate remedy lol.

Yeah, I just started a career legacy (runaway teen, rags to riches style etc) anyhow, a soccer ball (and free earbuds) was the "fun" need item he carried in his inventory. He was going to do the Strangerville/military career. (Random number generator determined 5 kids for him.) He was only allowed to visit his home lot to deal with mail and could only stay in each neighborhood once per week with no use of public facilities (except toilets since there isn't a portable one), so he had a cooler, portable shower and tent in his inventory and was just camping out on peoples lawns and stuff every night. Too fun. His fitness was 7-8 by the time he finished HS. One of his kids will be doing the same thing soon....

@hannahnelson543 3 ай бұрын

The bike actually makes sense to me because, in sims 4, it’s a form of transportation. I can imagine them purposely not having the sim lose weight/gain muscle because eventually most of the sims would look slim/strong because of the frequency of riding bikes. Like if I want my sim to be on the heavier side of the spectrum but she rides bike a lot, it would be annoying to keep resetting the body shape I want because she keeps exercising. Great video! I never knew any of this.

@asmrtpop2676 3 ай бұрын

It’s just laziness on their end. There’s no reason casual transportation bike riding can’t have a small boost to muscle and/or weight that plateaus easily. Meanwhile bike riding could have actual work out modes that don’t plateau and also give significantly more gains in those areas with noticeable effects.

@VanessaLatte 4 ай бұрын

If you did another video where you tested some game mechanic like this in the future it would be super cool if you did a "conclusion" section ranking everything.

All my sims going to be using that soccor ball now, lol.

Its so weird that cheerleading dont get any of the gain/loss, meanwhile you raise the fitness skill doing it I believe. Also very weird that basketball does make you gain muscle mass? BUT no weight loss, if anything that should be the opposite, or tuned like soccer for instance. Its also such a shame that football need to be queued up all the time, I tested it, and its the kind of feature I wont touch again, because its too annoying to micro manage. Especially when its a task for an after school activities and wont be complete in one try... I needed to baby manage my dudes so that they could get it done, otherwise they would disappear somewhere... frustrating. Very good job sir, I love these kind of videos.

Super informative video, I learned a lot but i was looking for a very specific exercise that sadly looks like the "random exercise" you missed 😅 in the Laundry Day Stuff Pack, sims can manually wash laundry using a washing bin/bucket and I notice my sim's fitness level increases when they do this. I haven't run any experiments with it but I just suspect it increases muscle gain and maybe does nothing or bare minimum for weight loss.

My sim who did rock climbing as a teen got so much muscle I was really surprised. I'm also surprised horse riding did nothing, having done it in the past - it can be physically demanding.

Can’t believe swim and dance had little to no impact but now I know I’ll just need to spam soccer kicking 😂 my mermaid sim is super toned from swimming and running but it makes sense she’s not bulky as the muscle increase is small. Great video

This is all fascinating! I need to buy my sims soccer balls. What about hiking in Outdoor Retreat, powerwalking in Growing Together, and hiking in Snowy Escape?

Wow that was fantastic, thank you! So now instead of saving up for the expensive treadmill, I can buy my sim a soccer ball pretty quickly! Also takes up less room, lol.

My Sims seem to get super lean and muscular doing yoga. For this reason, I start wellness Sims of with more fat than muscle, to compensate. Your results are interesting. Maybe you can do horseback riding and the other sports next.
