I m so excited to be part of this show, commented Alyson. Getting fit is all about your mind, body and inner self. Being fit doesn’t just mean looking fit ” it means living a better, smarter, healthier lifestyle. It means helping kids be happy, dealing with stress, dealing with issues we all deal with. We need to make smart decisions about how we live. We have so much to learn and so much to share. This is a great place to start.
Get Fit With Alyson is an interactive web series that will engage, motivate and inspire tweens and teens to regularly exercise and learn strategies to live an overall healthy lifestyle. Get Fit With Alyson appeals to all kids, no matter how big or small, the ‘in’ kids, kids who feel like they just don t ‘fit in’, those who are under fit/over weight, those who suffer from low self-esteem, poor focus and low achievement and kids who come from unsupervised and low socio-economic environments. The series will be available on getfitwithalyson.com, (series start date - Wednesday, June 11th, 2008) as podcasts and as mobile content. Get Fit With Alyson will encourage visitors to submit their own stories of the things they are doing to change their lives.

Lloyd Simon, Production Advisors President adds: We are excited to work closely with Dennis, Vern and Tribe Pictures and to introduce the talented Alyson Stoner in some very exciting new webisodes. The Internet is that ‘brand new world’ waiting to reveal its reach and benefits to advertisers ready to use it as a venue to acquaint all those with their product s story. It s an essential for Alyson s generation. We were very thorough with our talent research for this project. Our key directive was finding someone who would instantly connect with our audience, and we were confident Alyson Stoner would be the perfect fit. Seeing Alyson in action on the set only reinforced our self-assurance. She truly is a gifted, intuitive young actress.”

“Get Fit with Alyson” is a new site hosted by Alyson Stoner, one of the “Dozen” from Cheaper by the Dozen (and that one backup dancer in Missy Elliott’s “Work It” video), featuring podcasts and mobile phone videos in which the actress leads kids through short exercise programs. It will also feature stories from readers about fitness and “the things they are doing to change their lives.” Apparently, Alyson will also talk about “issues” that are important to teens.
Concurrent with the “Get Fit” content, a series of “Get Wii Fit with Alyson” videos will be made available through the Nintendo Channel, in which Alyson demonstrates Wii Fit exercises on the Balance Board. This whole thing is sponsored by Nintendo, in fact, which means that even the “Get Fit” site is basically Wii Fit marketing. Which leads us to ask: if Wii Fit is selling so well, why not put a bit of ad money elsewhere? People might want to hear about WiiWare at some point.
