Title: Does jump rope not increase fitness? Post by: Lion on 2009 April 17, 12:33:34 It gains body skills and fitness interest, but not actually slim sims down. Am I the only one to have this issue?

Am I the only one to have this issue? Not sure, now that you mention it. I know I had a sim-6 who gained body skills by jumping rope, but can't recall if he gained any slimming effect. On the other hand, it reminds me that there was one activity I saw the other day where the sims appeared to slim down well enough, but gained no body skill at all (dancing?). I'll have to check for that now too. Title: Re: Does jump rope not increase fitness?

It's still a good way to get those first three body points. My sim kids are really the only ones I allow to jump rope. At that stage, being fat isn't really an issue.

Thanks. I searched with "jump rope" and didn't get that one turned up. |
