Athletic

''This page is about The Sims 2 Athletic Career Track. For The Sims Career Track, see Pro Athlete''

The Athletic career track is centered around the taming of the body, and as such, the Body skill is primary, with inspiration and understanding of the body pushing the lowly athlete into coach stardom.

The Career reward object is a two by two square punching bag called the Exerto Punching Bag. It is obtained when a sim reaches All Star. It raises Fun and Body. The Description of the item is:

"Float like a moth and sting like a yellow jacket! With the Exerto Punching Bag, athletic Sims can punch away to release tension and keep in shape while building a useful career skill."

 * Team Mascot
 * A young athlete has to start somewhere - even if it's sweating inside a cartoon animal suit. A very physical grunt job with lousy pay - but at least you can watch the game from up close. Besides water, the coach also expects you to prepare the players' snacks...a lot of snacks.

It's essential to get your rest and keep your body in prime shape - this is your livelihood. And since you're going to be interviewed more now, work on that charisma skill so you can get noticed.

 * You're heading through the mid-point of your career. There is a special need to work on relationship skills here and present a positive image. If the fans love you, that fills the stadium - and that fills your pay envelop. Meanwhile, family and friends (and even your house) might need attention too.

 * Major income, you've got those commercial endorsements, and you're at the top of your game. Your body works like a well-oiled machine but it's taking longer to recover from your injuries. How long can you remain "Number One?" It's probably a good time to start thinking about future opportunities - you may be retiring much sooner than you think.

 * You're retired from playing: a change both dreaded and welcome. But there's an opportunity to stay with the team you love - although this time you'll be carrying a playbook. Make sure you're still networking with friends because your relationships and charisma are going to get you further than your body skill can.

 * Waterperson
 * This is where the magic begins. Where those who aspire to be part of the team without running the risk of physical injury or public humiliation get their feet wet, literally. Hydration is an important part of the athlete's routine, and even though they could probably manage to get their own water, it's much more fun to have you do it for them.
