How the Fitness skill points scale per level
You only need 100 skill points to reach level 1, and 1,440 more to reach level 2. The point requirements stay relatively low through level 4, which takes 7,300 total points.
The climb gets steeper at level 5, which asks for 5,280 points from level 4. Another large jump happens at level 7, requiring 10,140 points from level 6.
The final levels take the most effort. Going from level 9 to level 10 takes 21,120 points, bringing the total from zero to 81,580 points.
Emotions and moodlets that speed up Fitness gain
Your Sim's current emotion changes how fast you earn Fitness points. Being Energized gives a 1.4 multiplier, and Very Energized raises that multiplier to 1.6. Avoid training while Sad or Very Sad, as these drop your gain multiplier to 0.8 and 0.6.
Specific moodlets multiply your gains even further, and several multipliers stack together. Athletic Pick Me Up, Horse Power, Prancing Lessons, and X-TREME MUSCLE MAELSTROM each provide a 2 multiplier. Prepared for Fitness gives 1.75, while Active Boost, Crafty Memories, and Dark Chicken give a 1.5 multiplier.
General skill boosts also work on Fitness. Snaggle Flustered multiplies skill gain by 4. Parental Guidance and Skilling on Up multiply your points by 3.
Career requirements, interactions, and the Fitness cheat
Higher levels unlock new interactions. At level 3, you can Free Dive for Seashells or do an Endurance Run. Level 5 unlocks Coach and Mentor interactions, level 8 adds the Epic Gains Workout, and level 10 unlocks Bask in Your Fitness Glory.
Two careers require this skill for promotions. The Athlete career asks for level 2, 3, and 4 Fitness in its early stages. The Bodybuilder branch requires level 8 for promotion from career level 5. The Astronaut career asks for level 2, 3, 4, and 6 early on, and both branches eventually require level 10.
