Get
Fit, Get Right is an interactive web-based intervention that leverages
current technology and youth-friendly programming to help overweight
teens and those at risk for being overweight learn to incrementally
adopt healthier behaviors that are sustainable over time. The
program targets youth ages 13-18 and will feature a faux "reality
show" format to deliver peer-to-peer content from six overweight
teens, an online coaching feature to monitor and encourage physical
activity, and an online community to provide peer support.
A key feature of the program will be streamed video of teens
participating in physical activities such as hip hop dance classes
and personal training sessions - and personal stories from teens
for teens. Also, nutrition and physical activity resources such
as articles and tips will be accessible across the website.
Reach out and inspire other teens by sharing your personal success
story about how you became healthier and lost weight. Click here
