Some of you (especially basketball and volleyball players) may be interested in improving your vertical jump. I have bought a couple of programs and liked them both. But the more popular one is The Vertical Jump Bible
I would recommend this to anyone looking to increase their jump.

The History of New Years Day and New Years Resolutions
Yes, it is time again to face the New Year and with that, the obligatory and oftentimes dreaded News Years Resolutions. Personally, since I tend to be a goal-oriented person, I welcome any opportunity to challenge myself to improve my life in any manner that it requires. Unfortunately, the statistics show that, if a New Years Resolution is made, it is seldom kept. Learn the History or News Years day and New Years Resolutions.
Why New Years Resolutions fail and how to keep yours

By investing your efforts in these New Years Resolution guidelines, you give yourself a launch pad for starting your new year and your new life. Happy New Year!
Stop smoking New Years resolution
Smoking is bad for you and I think that everyone knows this. It is also no secret that smoking is a hard addiction to break. I have seen statistics that claimed that in any given year almost halve of the smokers in the United States try to quit. Obviously this shows that many people try every year or two to quit (or else in two years everyone would have already attempted to quit). I can believe this because I know and work with many smokers and also have a lot of family members that smoke. I think that they have pretty much all attempted to quit smoking at least once. I only actual know one person who has successfully quit.
Clearly trying to quit smoking is a valid New Year’s resolution and many people have attempted it. Here are some resources to help you in your (difficult) quest.
Guide to quit smoking
Do you want to stop smoking easily and quickly? then do take to read this articles slowly. The mind has two parts: the conscious and subconscious. You might want to stop smoking because it's bad for your health (conscious reason), but you're still aware that smoking makes you feel good about yourself (subconscious reason).
However there is a proper way to proceed with once you have decided to quit smoking viz.
First sit down and write down why you want to quit (the benefits of quitting): live longer, feel better, for your family, save money, smell better, find a mate more easily, etc. You know what's bad about smoking and you know what you'll get by quitting. Put it on paper and read it daily.
Ask your family and friends to support your decision to quit. Ask them to be completely supportive and non-judgmental. Let them know ahead of time that you will probably be irritable and even irrational while you withdraw from your smoking habit.
Set a quit date. Decide what day you will extinguish your cigarettes forever.
Talk with your doctor about quitting. Support and guidance from a physician is a proven way to better your chances to quit.
Begin an exercise program. Exercise is simply incompatible with smoking. Exercise relieves stress and helps your body recover from years of damage from cigarettes.
Do some deep breathing each day for 3 to 5 minutes. Breathe in through your nose very slowly, hold the breath for a few seconds, and exhale very slowly through your mouth.
Have your teeth cleaned. Enjoy the way your teeth look and feel and plan to keep them that way.
Drink lots of water. Water is good for you anyway, and most people don't get enough. It will help flush the nicotine and other chemicals out of your body, plus it can help reduce cravings by fulfilling the "oral desires" that you may have.
Learn what triggers your desire for a cigarette, such as stress, the end of a meal, arrival at work, entering a bar, etc. Avoid these triggers or if that's impossible, plan alternative ways to deal with the triggers.
Find something to hold in your hand and mouth, to replace cigarettes. You might try an artificial cigarette.
Lastly believe in yourself. Believe that you can quit. Think about some of the most difficult things you have done in your life and realize that you have the guts and determination to quit smoking.

Diet and exercise
A lot of people believe that you need a good healthy diet and you need to exercise. However there are some people who believe that diet is important and exercise is not. It is true that it is way easier to eat calories then it is to burn them off, sometimes you hear someone eat something that they shouldn't and then they say that they are going to go walk it off. I guess this is better then doing nothing but it is very easier to eat three of four hundred calories and it will take a very long time to burn that, even with a very intense workout. So exercise doesn't replace diet. However if you want a strong and healthy body then you need exercise too, it's not enough to just eat right.
