Last week, President Barack Obama linked video games to a sedentary lifestyle in a speech to the American Medical Association about health care reform. And certainly, we all know that sitting on a couch in front of your console or computer screen for hours on end isn’t great for your fitness level. However, EA SPORTS President posted a challenge to our American President on his official blog.

From Peter Moore:
Of course, I can’t resist pointing out that while I’ve always wholeheartedly endorsed moderation in anything you do, including playing games, it may be time for the President and his family to put their Wii to good use and fire up the 30-Day Challenge with EA SPORTS Active. This is a “game” even the President may not want to “step away” from.
…
Mr. President, here is my challenge to you: Try EA SPORTS Active and I guarantee you’ll need aides saying “Yes You Can!” to finish your first workout.
So what do you think? With President Obama step up to President Moore’s challenge and start to get active with EA SPORTS Active? Have you tried this Wii video game yourself? You can read about the participants in the Wii 30 Day Fitness Challenge and check out their results at easportsactive.com.
