I have a problem, every time I start a new task, my sim stops the action and proceeds to do push-ups. So I have to do the action twice. I tried to disable the autonomy of the characters in the main menu and revoke the action plans for a healthy life thinking that the sims are exercising because of that. This problem is really annoying, I can't do certain things that need to be done in one session, like game tournaments for example. If anyone knows the solution, I would love to hear it.
I think he intended it as a personalized show of respect, in place of something like a salute or bow that a normal person would give.
Although the funniest interpretation would be "I'm giving you one last chance to get this right, Mrs. Ginsburg."
