Athletic Career Track
Sims looking to become a Hall of Famer or those who express an interest in sports and staying active should pursue a career in athletics. The Athletic Career Track is demanding, but highly rewarding. Sims who have an interest in sports and fitness will enjoy the Athletic Career Track.

It’s also a good way for elders to contribute to the family funds. Below are all the jobs teens and elders can excel in for athletics:
Teens must have grades of ‘C’ or higher before they can get a part-time job.

Upon reaching level five in this career, your sim will gain access to the Exerto Punching Bag. You can find it in the career rewards menu, just below your inventory. Scroll through the occupations and place the punching bag in your home lot to increase fun while training your Body skill.
Giving lessons can assist younger sims in boosting their body skill!
Household sims can use the punching bag as well, enabling them to train and get a head start if they want to pursue this career track later in life. Give your sims the best shot at their dream job by preparing their body skills early.
