A fantastic way to be healthy and to maintain your physical condition is frequently to practice a sport. When you move your own body after a while you start to become very relaxed. This is because in the brain there are created substances called endorphins. In case you wish to practice a sport but you don't know which one you have a wide variety of such activities from which you can choose including tennis, jogging, football, tennis etc.
One of the cheapest and most accessible sports is jogging. This is a excellent sport because you can easily practice it in an outdoor environment with your friends or just by yourself. When you take the decision to start jogging first you have to find the right environment where you will not be disturbed by cars or any other things. Usually there are special tracks created for something like that.
The second important thing is your equipment. First you don't need high priced clothes in order to practice jogging. Just a light t shirt and some shirts are more than enough. Your sneakers have to be as light as possible. On the market there can be found different models at very decent prices. After you have purchased the basic but necessary equipment you are set to go. Before you start jogging you could take with you a small bottle of drinking water in case you feel the need to hydrate yourself.
In the beginning you have to start slowly and not to push yourself very hard. In the moment you are feeling extremely exhausted you should stop for a second. After you are feeling a little bit better you could start again. When you run is really important how to breath. Your breathing must have a constant rhythm in order to resist for a considerable amount of time. If you breath randomly you will not resist for a very long time.
If before you have not practiced this activity you will see that you will get tired really quickly. But don't worry simply because this is some thing normal. You just have to give your body a considerable amount of time in order to adjust with this new conditions. After a considerable amount of time after you have started to jog you will see that you will resist for a much longer time. Beside that you will loose some weight and your health will see a massive improvement.
After a month of practicing jogging regularly you will breath a lot more easier than before and your physical condition will be great. After you have started this sport is important to practice it for as long as you can and regularly.

Three Simple Tips to Cure Your Golf Slice
The golf slice is an annoying mishit which most of us have played at one time or another. To get rid of your slice you first need to know what causes it.
There are two main reasons you're slicing the ball;
1. The clubface is open to the path its travelling at the moment of impact.
2. You're swinging from outside-to-inside.
This article will give you a few simple tips to fix your slice. To fix your golf slice you need to;
1. Square the clubface
2. Swing on a nice square inside path.
Tip #1 Check Your Grip
Slicers of the ball tend to have a weak grip - meaning that the clubface is free to move open.
Ensure that your hands aren't turned too far left on the grip. To get the right grip position ensure that the Vs formed by the index finger and thumb on both hands points to your right ear.
Also when you look down you should only be able to see two knuckles of your left hand.
Tip #2 Fix Your Out-to-In swing path
If you're slicing the ball you're swinging too much from the outside in, this causes your slice. The swing path that will give you the straightest shots is an inside-square-inside swing path. The key is to stick to this inside-to-inside swing path as much as possible in the swing.
A good drill to develop a good feel for the inside square swing path is to set two tees opposite each other, about six inches away from one another. Place your ball in the middle of the tees now practice hitting the ball in the middle swinging through the tees.
If you hit the tees then you're swinging too much from the outside. Keep practising until you can hit the ball without making contact with the tees. This drill will get you used to swinging on an inside-square-inside path.
Tip #3 Squaring the Clubface
You have worked on fixing your out-to-in swing path. To fix the slice you need to work on both your swing path and your open clubface.
You want to ensure that your clubface is square at impact. The easiest way that you can get the clubface square at impact is to simply square the clubface at address and then keep it square throughout the entire swing.
You see it's much easier to bring the club back through with a square clubface if it was already square on the backswing. If your clubface is open or closed then you have to compensate by flicking the wrists over at impact, this doesn't work, not only do you slice the ball but you also lose a lot of power.
So remember - clubface square at address, on the backswing, on the downswing and then it's much easier to hit the ball with a square clubface.
Follow these tips, implement them in your game and practice!

Golf Psychology: Fear of Failure
Fear of Failure
Fear of failure can affect Golfers of all abilities. So let's look at two extremes we can find in golf.
The Higher Handicap Player
The problem:
For the Higher handicap player, the fear of failure can typically manifest itself on the first tee. The fear, stress and anxiety increases as he or she is about to play their first shot of the day. But why?
Well, negative thoughts about topping the ball, slicing out of bounds or missing the shot completely can all be magnified in their own minds for this level of player when it comes to the First Tee shot because of its very nature:
Players are normally standing around, watching others tee off.
The first tee may be right in front of - or close to - the Clubhouse. It's the first shot of the day.
The higher handicapper is normally more inconsistent in their ball striking and so has lower self confidence than the better player.
Many tie the quality of their first shot to a belief that this will set the tone for the whole round.
The list could go on - but the fact is the FEAR is a direct result of concerns over:
Embarrassment: worry about topping the ball or missing the shot or whatever
Peer Pressure: your colleagues and other players who are standing around "comparing" what you're doing
Self Esteem: the above two, contribute to tying in your golf game - to your self worth.
The answer:
Create a routine for the First Tee that focuses* on the positives of your game. Use Visualisation* to see you playing a shot that you know that you can hit.
Must you use your Driver if you find it difficult to hit? Your mind will only accept thoughts and images that you believe to be true, so if you can't hit your driver - don't use it (especially on the first tee). Using a club that you're comfortable with will give you confidence* - because you will believe that you can use it.
Understand that there will always be players who are better than you (we are talking about high handicappers here, remember!) - So if they are standing around watching you - what's the problem? Do not make the all too common mistake of thinking a poor shot means that YOU - as a person - are in some way inferior. Your golf game is not you!
Unfortunately too many higher handicap players tie their game and self worth together - if this is you - STOP right now. Why do you think you play off 24, 21 or whatever? Because you WILL make mistakes. You will top the ball, slice your shots and miss many putts - if you didn't - you would be off 5 - not 25.
So get a reality check.
Remove the pressure that you put on yourself on the first by creating a process* and routine for hitting - not just this shot - but every shot. Use a club that you know you can hit. Learn to reframe* any negative thoughts about the first tee. The pressure and associated stress is all in your own head - no one expects a high handicapper to cream the ball off the first tee - 300 yards. So RELAX*, use focussing* techniques and enjoy your round.

The History of the Collingwood Magpies
The Collingwood Magpies had an incredible year last year, and it is due them to have a look at their history and consider how they got to be such a celebrated team.
What has led to their greatness? What are some of the key dates in their history? Who are some of the "greats" associated with this team?
The premiership victory was certainly a great feat, and the Grand Final was such a neck-and-neck battle that it gave way to a Grand Final replay, in which the Magpies utterly trounced the Saint Kilda Saints.
Not having won a Grand Final for the past twenty years, the rejoicing amongst the Magpies' fans was massive – prior to the game, AFL merchandise coloured the streets as supporters of opposing teams proudly showed their allegiance. This gave way to the colours of black and white following the game with flags and scarves blowing from car windows, fences, and anywhere else available to fly their colours.
Looking back on Collingwood's first Premiership victory in 1902, it is significant to note that it was not only Collingwood's first premiership season, but it was also the first time for the Grand Finals to be played at the MCG. In a nail-biting event the very next year, the Pies won their back-to-back title under warm conditions, and against a strong opponent, pulling into the lead at the last moment with a mere two points. The question remains for 2011 – will they pull off another back-to-back?
Not only has Collingwood succeeded to obtain two back to back victories, they have had a four year consecutive run – 1927-1930. Though they have competed in an outstanding number of Their victories got smaller however, and by the time the Grand Final came around in 2010, their supporters were ready for a party – and boy did they ever party! After 20 years of silence, they were back at the top – and no one was able to miss it. AFL merchandise abounded wherever one looked, and it seemed as if all of Australia was having a party...Not that all of Australia are Colllingwood supporters, but they certainly have a large fan base.
In fact, not only does Collingwood have the largest fan base in AFL, but they also hold the title for the largest supporters of any Australian sport. In 1970, when Collingwood and Carlton battled it out for the Premiership title, a record crowd of 121,696 spectators watched. And in 2010, the year of the Magpie, they beat their previous membership record with a total of 57,617. Many supporters purchase AFL merchandise and proudly support the Magpies.
With 8 Brownlow Medal winners, beginning with Syd Coventry in 1927 and the latest being Nathan Buckley in 2003, Collingwood has many prestigious players. Nathan Buckley also set other records, including the most bests and fairests.
Nick Maxwell is the current captain of the Magpies, having begun in 2008, and led them to victory in the 2010 Grand Finals.

Dan "Hendo " Henderson wins light heavyweight STRIKEFORCE
Dan Henderson cements his legacy in the world of MMA with another title at the age of 40 in the light heavyweight division of strikeforce vs Rafael "Feijao" Cavalcante. Henderson had his right hand cocked and loaded from the start of round 1. It was no secret that this was his weapon of choice but Rafael was unable to stop "the H -bomb" from landing in round 3 to all but end the fight and winning another title to add to his long list of accomplishments in MMA.
In round 1 Rafael had surprised Dan Henderson with a power right of his own to the face of Hendo that knocked him to the ground, but Dan was able to get up quickly and grab Rafael and take him to the mat where Dan used his ground control game to re-group and recover from the knockdown. Feijao also landed a huge leg kick in round 1 that bruised the thigh above the knee on Hendo.
Round 2 seen Henderson use his dominant wrestling skills to takedown his larger opponent a couple of times to win a closely contested round. Rafael went for an early takedown but was stuffed by a sprawling Henderson.

Backfire
Hello, my name is Stephen and I am not a violent person. I shouldn’t have probably begin with that but I think that I should make a point of that. So I will start from the beginning. About 7 years ago give or take several months I was on a kids summer camp. I was a chubby kid more on the fat side which was just beginning to go through puberty. Suffice it to say going to the camp wasn’t my idea. My father decided that I need toughening and he sent me in the middle of nowhere for a summer full hiking, biking, swimming in the lake and away from video games. None of my friends were going there and basically it was like a hell for me. The other kids made making fun of me a kind of sport so I stayed away from them as much as possible. Probably my only real friend in the camp was one of the instructors - Avi. He was an ex-Israeli Defense Force soldier and had a very strange sense of humor but I liked him because he treated me like adult and not like a fat piece of lard.
Anyway every morning around 6 am he would go near the lake and train some moves for a week or so I thought it was Kung-Fu but eventually I understood that it was Krav Maga, "the Isreali Kung-Fu" as Avi put it. After several days watching him (I was getting before everyone else because this made getting away from them easier), I convinced him to teach me. And so my Krav Maga training began. It wasn’t long before I realized I really enjoy practicing the moves and later training with him. By the end of the summer I was really hooked on the concept and the idea of this martial art and not surprisingly when I went back home I looked for Krav Maga schools in the NYC and found several. As I continued practicing it I lost weight and the abuse from the school bullies stop. Everything would have been just peachy if it wasn’t for my father who constantly mocked me about training Krav Maga, according to him a real man didn’t need to train fancy jumps and kicks. So he decided to prove me that I wasn’t ready to protect myself, but his plan backfired.
While I was sleeping he barged in my room with a mask while my big brother was recording the whole thing on camera. He expected to freak me out by grabbing my shoulder and screaming "This is a robbery" in my ear, he didn’t expect my just woken up self to hit him with the night lamp in the face and then to almost instantly to proceed kicking and hitting him. The video was quite spectacular actually, the type of which turns viral when it goes in the web.
As a direct result from this adventure my father had a broken nose and lots of bruises. He now attends my Krav Maga School too and my mother keeps the tape and shows it on Christmas and family gatherings for much of my father’s annoyance.
In conclusion I want to say that I am not violent man, but when the thanks to my training when the situation expects it I will react properly even if it is my father.
