In brief

In Paralives, the fitness skill is essential for improving your Parafolks' performance in all other activities. Discover how to progress through exercise, dancing, and studying, while managing your characters' moods to optimize their training.

In Paralives, the fitness skill is divided into different sub-skills. Let's try to shed some light on it!

The fitness skill

The fitness skill in Paralives covers all physical activities, whether it's exercising at the gym or free movement around the house. One important aspect of this skill is that it impacts the Parafolks' performance and the speed at which they level up in all other activities. To improve this skill, you have several options:

Reading and studying
Physical activities

Note

The Parafolks' mood matters for their progress in the skill, as negative emotions interfere with progression and make training less effective.

Improving the exercise skill

Exercise is the first element for improving the fitness skill. Get your Parafolks to do sports in the world around them, for example by running during your explorations. If you have access to the fitness room, don't hesitate! Otherwise, you can buy it for your home, or wait for the local market, which contains equipment freely available for common use.

Improving the dance skill

Dancing is another fun way to increase the fitness skill: choose an open space and after selecting the "Dance here" option, your Parafolks, though their first steps may be shaky, will improve with practice.

With the right dream perk, Parafolks can improve their dance skill while sleeping.
