fbi, the atf and u.s. marshals. the governor even called in the national guard to work at airports and train stations to ensure security there as well. there are hundreds of cameras trained on the revelers here in times square being monitored at the nypd's joint operations center. they have heavily armed s.w.a.t. teams on the ground. they have helicopters in the sky. they have snipers on rooftops. and a lot of officers on the streets, bomb squads, radiation detectors, pretty much every tool in their arsenal has been deployed. officers by the way working in teams this year because of the heightened tension in the police department, in the city with all the protests and the recent assassination of two police officers. there also have been a lot of threats. the commissioner told us today 80 threats against police that have been recorded on facebook or twitter or by phone. and they have made 16 arrests because of these threat investigations. and they take every threat seriously. they're also a little concerned about protests tonight. we know that there is a crowd of roughly 150 or so gathered down

in union square. and they apparently plan to march up here towards times square. but the nypd says that will be impossible for them to actually reach this area. as you guys know it is locked down souper tight here. nypd doing a great job this year, as they do every year, to keep everyone safe and secure working. you can see they're working while the rest of us, well most of us, celebrate. >> that's right. you know, this protest specifically this is personal. a lot of these sometimes protesters here in new york city they're against, you know, for the climate change situation or it's an occupy wall street, these are anti-nypd protesters. you've talked to some of these police officers. do you get a sense this year is different on new year's eve and they're dealing with a different type of protest? or has that affected their mentality tonight? >> i don't know that's it's affected their mentality. i know that these guys are upset that the public might -- or some members of the public might turn

their eye toward the police that are risking their lives every day to keep this city safe. and there's definitely a different tone here. as i mentioned, officers working in pairs instead of by themselves. looking over their shoulders concerned about what might happen to them. but the commissioner has said it's been a challenger year but a great year and he wouldn't have it any other way and wouldn't want to do any other job. the guys on the street i think feel the same way. >> rick, thank you so much. we'll check back with you in just a bit. here's what's coming up, we're checking in on all the hottest new year's eve parties going on around the country tonight. >> and up next we'll go live to south beach for an a-list bash. and don't forget to write down your new year's resolution. tweet them to us using foxnews2015.

wine. i saw al gait tors, an amusement park, baseball card collections so valuable if they were sold they'd crash the sports card market. and even roy orbison's sons invited me into the johnny cash cab into hear a recording "the way is love." for their strange inheritance, they get to sing backup with their dad who's passed now for a while. there are so many incredible stories. people can even share their own with us by going to facebook and going to the strange inheritance page or twittering me, tweeting me at jamiecolbytv. we'd love to hear their strange inheritances. and i'll come to your home, maybe, and help you figure out what to do with your stuff using my law background and business, kimberly. but mostly what i learned it's not about the stuff. it's about what the stuff you inherit teaches you about you and the incredible family you

my new year's resolution is to never do a new year's resolution again because i never stick to it. >> my new year's resolution is to bring the heart message to everyone this year. >> my resolution this year is to use only 25 milligrams. hey everybody. welcome back to fox's countdown to 2015. we're betting a lot of your new year's resolutions will be about shedding pounds. increases for diet increase 35% on new year's day. if you're trying to figure out the best way to get in shape, i toured several of new york's hottest fitness studios, everything from dancing to spinning to strengthening and

lengthening and toning. >> watch. >> i can't wait. >> let's get rid of all those holiday pounds we put on in 2014, the pumpkin pie, creamy corn pudding. let's lose it all. let's start with 305. >> 305 is miami's area code. it's all about bringing the south beach, the heat, the sexy, helping you shed pounds but in a really fun, lively way. >> it's a workout disguised as a dance party. we have a crazy light show, we have a live deejay. it's like you're at a nightclub, at a rave dancing with your friends only it's a really intense workout. we never stop moving for 55

minutes. it's great for stability, but mostly 55 minutes of straightup card owe. cardio. we have a deejay in every class, we get excited every time a new song comes on we don't expect. >> 305 is a great place to get the party started, but we have a lot more to go. >> three, two, one, let's go. >> next up, swerve. this is not your average spin class. this is a crazy competition. >> electric. it's lots of fun, lots of

energy. if the team wins we turn on the lights so the blue lights come over your team and everyone cheers. it's lots of fun. >> blue team make some noise. >> green team make some noise. >> we have the performance tracking technology where you'll have a bike console right in front of you and you can track your progress throughout the class. we ride as a team and we stay motivated and accountable all together. >> three, two, one. >> woo! that was tough. am i sweating? i'm glad they have a smoothie bar so i can refuel. we still have another spot to go to. our final stop, slt or

strengthen, lengthen, tone. let's go inside and check it out. but it looks more like a torture chamber than it does a fitness class. >> some people say it is a torture chamber. >> slt is like pilates on crack. it's a combination of cardio, strength training and pilates. it is a slow workout where you do every move for extended periods of time so you work your muscles to muscle failure. >> i can totally see why the celebrities, victoria's secret models do this, it's tough. it's muscle shaking, sweat inducing and fun workout, 50 minutes full body, core focused

workout. my piece of advice is be realistic, what can you fit in your schedule, what will you actually wake up to do? if you're not a morning person, you should be working out at night. if you're not a night person, you should be working out in the morning. if you need a friend, make a friend, do it just be very realistic. >> i think i've had enough of the springs and chains. that's slt in a nutshell. hopefully you enjoyed our tour around new york city. >> so new york city's epicenter for entertainment but also fitness. >> are you kidding me? did you really do all that? >> bob actually wants a copy of the footage to take home. >> i do. do you want to do it? i just sit outside and wait for the ambulance. >> bob is emotionally aroused right now. >> i want to so we can actually give some news they can use, solutions a lot of people want to do this in the new year and get fit. and i think we bite off more than we can chew. we think we're going to lose 20 pounds in two weeks and it's

impossible. so instead just be realistic. >> that's why people get so frustrated. and what i always tell people, anna, pick something you really like to do. whenever i talk to people about fitness, they all say but i hate running. don't run, go play basketball, go take a dance class. if you love swimming f that makes you feel like a kid, go get in the pool. >> anything you like to do. >> yeah, bob, you burn some calories. >> that's good. i've got an idea or two. >> not many calories. very short workout. >> jesse, please, if i wore collars up like you did -- never mind. >> i know we're all going to be lining up for one of those beckel kisses. >> i'm going to phone in a friend. >> coming up, one of the most admired men in the world has some tips for your 2015. find out who that is next. but first in tonight's poll you're picking the music video of the year. go ahead head to facebook.com/foxnews and like your very favorite. here's one of the best songs,

is it safe? >> one of the reasons why times square is secure is that it isn't just about thousands of police officers but preparations throughout the day. and they swept through every garage, theater, hotel. and roof top. and then, they did start letting people in, they didn't let any backpacks they checked bags and they are keeping this place controlled as you can imagine. there are concerns about possible protests. new york city has been the scene of protests for the last five weeks or so. and after execution of two police officers when you have a million people

in events around the city, including madison square garden, it's tough to find people. so there are 2 to 300 people instead of the thousands who are marching up fifth avenue. but nypd says it's not concerned here because they have the place locked down so tight. i asked whether the cold affects them and you know, the biggest is that as soon as that drops people get out of here. so you can expect this crowd to be out quickly at 12:05. >> very good. >> yes. >> thank you very much. >> yes >> thank you. nypd for doing such a great job. >> tonight, every day and night we're grateful. this is a great city to live in. and jesse is applauding you.
