Special tips: How to make your body stronger

      Stay committed to the gym and constantly fine-tune your workouts, and you're sure to be significantly stronger in a few weeks. But damn it, sometimes that's just not soon enough like when you're meeting your buddies at the gym in an hour, and you want to make sure you smoke them on the bench press.

Do several warm-up sets with low reps that prepare you to lift your heaviest on your last few sets. That way, you'll have energy for those sets — the most crucial ones for strength gains. Say you're planning to squat with 300 pounds for five reps. You could do 135 pounds for six reps, 185 for five, 225 for three, 275 for two, and then 300 for five. By the tim...

FBI gets warrant to read Clinton probe emails

    The FBI has obtained a warrant to start reviewing emails found on a laptop used by top Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin and her husband Anthony Weiner, according to reports from US media.

Former Congressman Mr Weiner is being investigated separately after claims he exchanged illicit text messages with a teenager. The FBI conducted a mont...
