- Make the rate of change of all sims' fat and muscle slower (or faster).
- Prevent all fat and muscle changes for sims not in the active household.
- Expand the limits for sims' fat and muscle levels, allowing them to become heavier, leaner, or more muscular.
- Apply a fix for all teens becoming underweight.
- Remove the slower fat and muscle decay from sims with the 'High Metabolism' trait.
Why would you want this?
Fat and muscle changes in an unmodded The Sims 4 are tuned to be very fast, so you can see immediate results after exercise. If you play on longer lifespans, or would like a subtler fitness feature, or like the idea of sims' bodies changing more realistically, you might want this mod's Fitness Changes Multiplier feature to slow things down.
In an unmodded game, the background sims that eat from food stalls and go the gym will have their fat and muscle change from the things they do while in your neighborhood. This can lead them to quickly get extreme bodies, if most of their on-screen time is spent exercising or eating. If you play on longer lifespans, or with aging off for non-played sims, this problem becomes worse. If you switch households a lot, this can affect your own played sims while they are out of your control. Using this mod's No NPC Fitness Change feature can solve this issue while still letting your played sims be affected by fitness while you are playing with them.
If you'd like your sims to be able to grow and change into a wider variety of body shapes than the base game allows, you might want the Expanded Fitness Limits feature.
Sims modder Candyd discovered that in an unmodded game, teens have a modifier applied to them that halves all of their fat gains, but has no effect on their fat losses. If you've noticed that your teens typically end up at low fat by the time they become adults, regardless of exercise, this will be why. If you want to try teens with normal adult metabolism, you might want this mod's Underweight Teen Fix feature.
If you want to give a sim the Bodybuilder aspiration, but don't want them to rapidly change from the body shape you gave them in Create A Sim, you might want the No High Metabolism feature to disable the High Metabolism trait's modifier to fat and muscle decay.
How to use
To access the settings for this mod, click on your active sim, open the 'roBurky' category, and choose 'Fitness Controls'.
From this settings menu, you can decide which features of the mod you wish to use.
- Fitness Changes Multiplier
- Defaults to 1.0
- All fat and muscle changes for all sims will be multiplied by this value. When set to 1.0, the feature is disabled. When set lower than 1.0, changes will be slower. When set higher than 1.0, changes will be faster.
- Set to 0.0 to prevent all fat and muscle changes for all sims.
- Set to 0.2 or 0.1 to recreate the effects of Candyd's Retuned Metabolism mod.
- I'm going to be testing a value of 0.33 for my own game.
- No NPC Fitness Change
- Defaults to ENABLED
- When enabled, the fat and muscle of sims will change only when they are in the active household. This works by applying a 0x modifier on fat and muscle changes for non-played sims.
- Underweight Teen Fix
- Defaults to ENABLED
- When enabled, teens will gain and lose fat at the same rate as adults. This works by removing the 0.5x modifier on fat gains for teens.
- No High Metabolism
- Defaults to DISABLED
- When enabled, the fat and muscle of sims with the 'High Metabolism' trait will decay normally. This works by removing the 0.5x modifier on fat and muscle decay for this trait.
- This feature does not affect the ability of sims with the 'High Metabolism' trait to use an energy drink to become energized.
After changing any setting, you will need to restart your game before your changes will take effect.
Expanded Fitness Limits feature
With this feature, you can expand or reduce the range of sims fat and muscle levels. You can allow your sims to appear heavier, leaner, or more muscular than in the unmodded game.
The new limits apply both to the body sliders in Create-A-Sim, and to fitness changes from eating or exercise in live-mode. Sims' visible physique should continue to change at the same rate as before. Other effects from reaching high or low fat or muscle should take effect at the same visible level as before. Everything should behave almost exactly as you would expect.
Fitness Limits preset packages
To use the new limits, you should choose ONE optional limits package to download and install alongside the core Fitness Controls mod. The preset packages available to choose from are:
- 1.75x - Increased
- This preset provides increased limits that should still appear believable, and should not cause issues with animations.
- Limits - Heavy: 1.75x / Lean: 1.30x / Fit: 1.75x / Bony: 1.30x
- The images of sims on this page were made using this preset.
- 3.00x - Exaggerated
- This preset provides exaggerated limits that can appear cartoonish, but should not distort the sim mesh beyond its breaking points.
- Limits - Heavy: 3.00x / Lean: 1.70x / Fit: 3.00x / Bony: 1.70x
- 5.00x - Extreme
- This preset provides extreme limits that break the mesh and can look extremely weird.
- Limits: Heavy: 5.00x / Lean: 3.00x / Fit: 5.00x / Bony: 3.00x
Like in an unmodded game, the limits in Create-A-Sim are all a little bit less than the live-mode limits, to give the sim room to change once you begin to play.
Warnings and Known Issues
- Only install ONE limits package at a time.
- In Create-A-Sim, when you drag a fat or muscle slider beyond the normal limits, the sim's body will appear to stop updating. Select another item of clothing to make the body update to the new values.
- When sims with body fat over the normal limits wear certain items of custom content clothing, their arms will clip through their body when resting at their sides. If you have any information on how custom content creators might be able to avoid this, please contact me.

I’m always amazed by how popular The Sims 4 remains after so many years. This speaks volumes about developers who keep good content flowing, and a die-hard community.
Other than Maxis’ constant updates and new expansions, TS4 players have access to a treasure trove of fantastic custom content made by other fans.
Among the most essential CC to keep the game fresh are features for Create-A-Sim. You know, clothes and hair and stuff.
Well here I’ll be sharing the best packs for extra freckles.
These packs range from subtle, realistic affairs to stylized versions that’ll give your Sims a dreamy look.
There’s something for all tastes, all ages, all skin tones, and more. Check ‘em out!
15. Kissed by the Sun
Sims 4 Thick Body Preset
Whenever we think about freckles, we can’t help but think of those fortunate souls who were blessed with warm, bright red hair and little dots on their cute faces.
This CC pack by creator WistfulCastle is ideal for your stereotypical ginger Sims, providing most of their faces and bodies with enough freckles to last them a lifetime.
This pack is anything but subtle.
And it’s the kind of thing that’ll let their ginger pride shine whenever they wear swimsuits or anything of the sort.
This whole-body freckle pack comes with a gradation from lighter to darker colors, letting you make adjustments for use on any Sim, rather than just gingers.
14. Pecas 1 – Face and Back
While the previous entry will cover your Sim’s face and most of their body with freckles, not everyone has such an intense freckle situation.
Created by KatPurpura, the Pecas 1 pack will provide your Sims subtle but still pretty noticeable freckles on their face and some areas of the back.
These are a great option for Maxis Match Sims with lighter skin tones. But will also work well with Alpha CC.
Get this if you want your freckled Sims to have a natural, almost life-like look.
13. Subtle Freckles & Moles
Taking the subtlety up one notch comes creator WildlyMiniatureSandwich, who offers these Subtle Freckles & Moles for Sims of all genders and ages.
You’ll find them under Skin Details, with a couple of versions to better suit your needs.
They’re appealing and unique, but delicate.
Instead of taking over a Sim’s face, these add just a little bit of detail and shine along with all other features.
Something great about these lashes is that they’re 100% compatible with the base game, meaning they’ll look good on a Sim even if they have absolutely no CC other than this.
12. Occult Freckles
Being a vampire or an alien shouldn’t stop a Sim from having freckles.
Especially if they had them before turning into a bloodthirsty denizen of the night.
This CC pack by creator Maddioh was explicitly made for occult Sims, including darker freckles for goths and vampires, and starlit ones for extraterrestrial beings.
I’d say this would probably work for both Alpha and Maxis Match Sims, depending on exactly which CC you’re running alongside it.
11. Moles & Freckles Genetics
Almost all entries on our list are nothing more than CC packs for you to grant your lovely Sims beautiful freckles.
But what about something that’ll enhance your gameplay too?
This interesting mod does just that by making both freckles and moles into genetic variables that can be passed down along with hair color or skin type.
Now if any parents have freckles or moles, they have a chance of turning up on their offspring as well.
It’s a bit wonky, sure. And it probably won’t work with many CC Moles/Freckles. But it’s a pretty cool addition to try.
10. Mollie’s Freckles
Sometimes, finding the best TS4 CC involves immersing yourself in the most foreign regions of the Internet.
This includes international Tumblr communities and even private discords.
Luckily for us, other modders and CC creators like Kat go the extra mile to present their creations on well-designed and easy to navigate websites.
That’s where I found this fantastic freckle pack, available in six very contrasting colors that’ll let you work Mollie’s Freckles onto Sims of any race, including occult ones.
Sims 4 Mods Male Body
What sets Mollie’s Freckles apart is how each freckle is well-defined and opaque, making this ideal for Maxis Match characters despite probably being aimed toward Alpha Sims.
9. Face Freckles #2
Another pack of new freckles that could work on both Maxis Match and Alpha characters is Face Freckles #2 by creator SenpaiSimmer.
They’re perfect for both male and female Sims, and focus just on the face alone rather than their whole body.
These are the kinds of freckles you need when you want them to stand out among your Sim’s other features, as they go almost from ear to ear and are pretty noticeable.
All things considered, these may be some of the most real-looking freckles around, in the sense that they’re not stylized in one bit.
Freckles are all about chaotic beauty, and this CC captures that.
8. Hayley’s Freckles
If you’d rather get something so subtle you might not even notice it from afar, Hayley’s Freckles by Kat might be just the thing for you.
Unlike her previously featured Mollie’s Freckles, these are small and light-colored, almost blending into the character’s skin.
They’re great for a little bit of extra detail whenever your Sim gets a close-up picture taken, but they won’t take over their style.
I’d recommend this especially for Alpha CC-heavy Sims, as it might be a bit too subtle for most Maxis Match characters.
They’re available in five natural colors to accommodate all skin tones.
7. Poesie Freckles
Creator PralineSims always finds a way into our rankings thanks to their incredible CC library, which includes everything from home décor to… as you can guess, freckles.
These Poesie Freckles are mostly small subtle dots that are ideal for characters with light skin colors where even the slightest change makes a difference.
They’re available in nine different versions determining their spread, with the largest one covering forehead, nose, cheeks, and even the chin.
6. Sweet Freckles
Personally, I like Maxis Match characters better than I like Alpha ones.
There’s something about the cartoonish, almost clay-like look that makes the experience much more relaxing and fun for me.
These Sweet Freckles by creator Skaiya are among the very best options for Maxis Match Sims, bringing a very subtle look that mostly covers the nose.
The pack includes 11 freckle types, of which around half include a little bit of added blush for a more cutesy look.
After all, these are Sweet Freckles for sweet-looking Sims.
5. Naomi Freckles
If I had to choose based on how natural they look, these Naomi Freckles by SofterHaze on Tumblr would most likely place at the top of the ranking.
These hand-drawn freckles have just the right size, spread, and shape to look almost life-like. And they’re available in four versions that let you choose where you want your character to have freckles.
The pack includes 14 color shades for each variant, so you shouldn’t have any issues finding the right one for most Sims. Can’t go wrong here.
4. Frecklezilla Face & Body Freckles
Sometimes, you just want to throw subtlety out the window.
These intense freckles by creator SavageSimBaby will make your Sim look like one of those people who’ve been coated in beauty marks from a young age.
They look realistic and are meant for Alpha Sims.
As it generally happens with real people who’re covered in freckles, they’re most intense on their faces, while the rest of the body gets a slightly subtler version.
3. Zara Freckles
I’m a sucker for variety, as I’m sure lots of CC-enthusiasts are.
And prolific creator PralineSims tends to include many variations on each of their packs.
The Sims 4 Male Body Mods
These Zara Freckles, for example, come in 29 total variations including different shades.
You can choose to give your Sim just freckles, just moles, or both.
There’s also the freedom to decide whether they have them on their whole face or just certain regions.
I’d recommend this CC for Sims with a clear complexion that’ll make these natural-looking freckles shine.
2. Ellen Freckles
Sims 4 Male Body Mod
For Sims with strong features and a darker skin tone, I’d rather recommend PralineSims’ Ellen Freckles, which remain natural-looking but are more noticeable than the usual “subtle” ones.
Like the previous pack, this one includes around 30 different swatches with different freckle placement and five natural shades that make them easy to work into any complexion.
Weight Gain Mod Sims 4
While this is aimed at Alpha Sims, I wouldn’t be surprised if you could make them work on Maxis Match ones as well.
1. Miss Maria Freckles
There’s no reason for Maxis Match lovers to live under the oppression of those who pursue realism on their Sims.
To support the Maxis Match movement, I’m giving the top spot to my favorite Maxis Match freckles.
Sims 4 Male Body Hair Mod
This pack of skin details from LadySimmer94 is very stylized, and ideal for characters with simple vibrant looks.
Instead of looking like a byproduct of natural processes, these freckles look painted-on by an artist. I guess they really were created by an artist!
You’ll find three different swatches representing three common freckles “distributions” you may find on freckled people, and all swatches are enabled for males and females of all ages.
