Building on the popularity of Nintendo’s Wii as an exercise tool and one that has helped both kids and adults get fit with fun interactive games, EA is releasing the EA SPORTS Active on May 19th. Twelve challengers are beginning a 30 day challenge Saturday, April 18th to kick off the release and if you blog or are on twitter, you may know some of these faces! They met in Santa Barbara for a fitness weekend with Bob Greene, Oprah’s fitness inspiration and Ali Sweeney of The Biggest Loser and Days of our Lives to get a taste of the game.

The EA SPORTS Active site not only provides information about the challengers, but provides motivational and healthy living tips as well as a community forum for future participant interaction. Follow the challengers’ journeys to become fit at EA SPORTS Active ,  pre-purchase your copy and be prepared for your own 30 day challenge too!

Follow some of our favorite bloggers on their own blogs and on twitter ( #EASactive ) for the next 30 days.
