Gold, The Dailys & The Daily Workouts
When it comes to your workouts, especially if you want to progress that little bit faster, or you are progressing into the stage of power lifting where you are regularly using spotters, you will run into two needs. Consumables, and Gold.
We already covered what the consumables basically are on the previous page, and we’ll be looking closer at them in the last two pages, this page and the next one, though, are covering how to get the one thing that will assure a continuous supply of those consumables. How to get gold.
The Gold Supply
Gold is gained in three major ways in SML. By levelling up your main levels (the green bar), by selling consumables you gain from the Daily Boards and by selling the consumables you gain during your Daily Workout.
Above is a picture of the daily boards for The Fitness Factory, but no matter which one of the 60+ SML Partner gyms you go to, you will see those boards somewhere in that gym. At 5pm (Second Life Time), these boards in all gyms reset, along with your HUD. You need to remain in that gym for 5 minutes before you can claim the Daily Items at the top. The 4 boards you see under them are “Lucky Letter” style boards. If your first name’s first letter matches a letter on the board, click on it. If you see a hash sign (#) click on that as it is claimable by all.
Each consumable you get from a board will appear on your consumables bar on your HUD. From there you can left click on the item and use it…or sell it. If you come across an actual Gold consumable..you obviously use that instead of selling it, but it doesn’t really matter for the gold consumable because it sells for the same price as actually using it.
The Daily Workout, which we have covered as an intro for the HUD is a set of 5 exercises which reset at 5 pm (Second Life Time).
At the end of each timed workout, you get a free consumable, which culminates in a 6th free consumable at the end of all 5 workouts. Here’s a partially sped-up video to see the Daily Workout in action, along with the accumulation of consumables, then the sell off of them…
The Daily Workout is a great way to get short workouts every day, especially if you are generally too busy for long 1-hour (or over) workouts to gain lots of strength levels. Taking only 7 to 15 mins to complete, you gain a little in main levels and possibly over half a level in strength, but, more importantly, you get 6 consumable items that you can use or sell for gold!
While the daily workout is a great way to get 6 free consumables per day to sell for gold or to even use, the major income for gold is the Daily Boards. Every one of the 60+ gyms on the SML Partner Gym Program has those boards, and each gym has a different combination of free consumables for that day.
This means that you can technically go to every one of the SML partner gyms, grab the freebies, and then keep, or sell them off. This is by far the easiest way to get gold; however, that 5-minute wait time is one major hurdle, or at least…it used to be until the MTP HUD was made!
In order to prepare for the final section of this compendium, which covers the “Ultimate Way” to work out, we need to make sure you have enough gold to actually afford all those consumables! Read on into Part 4: The Daily Board Rounds…”Farming” The Boards
