Training dummies or practice dummies are objects used by Sims to practice hand-to-hand combat or swordfighting. Hand-to-hand combat training dummies are introduced in The Sims 3: World Adventures and The Sims 4: StrangerVille; while swordfighting training dummies were introduced in The Sims Medieval and The Sims 4: Royalty & Legacy.
Hand-to-hand Training Dummies
The Sims 3: World Adventures
The Sheng Hai Training Dummy is a skill object introduced in the World Adventures expansion pack for The Sims 3.
The Training Dummy is the primary skill object for obtaining the martial arts skill, the secondary one being the Board Breaker. These can only be bought from a merchant at the market in Shang Simla. Sims can access these objects without buying them through the Phoenix Academy in Shang Simla.
The animation of the Sim training with the dummy depends on the skill of the active trainee: if the trainee is new, the Sim will "slap" the dummy, sometimes ending up hurting themselves (although no moodlets or motive changes occur from such accidents), while a Sim who is somewhat acquainted with the art will either land a slow three consecutive kicks or a set of fast jabs. A really skilled sim (skill level 7 and above) may launch double-legged kicks and uppercuts.

Training bots are intended to be used by Sims in the military career, but any Sim can spar with one to raise their fitness skill. The Modified B64 Training Bot is unlocked in the military career at level 8, while in the Officer branch. It is decorated to look like the Mother Plant.
Sims can either spar alone, or take turns sparring while other Sims watch. Sparring together will raise friendly relationships.
