Down time is such a downer, and while we were planning on migrating to a more reliable server this coming weekend, the recent aggravations with our temporary home have forced my hand. I apologize for the rocky road over the next couple days, but hey, at least you will be able to see the site, eh?

I was planning on clueing you in to a few new features we have in the works with this migration, but I don’t want to let the cat out of the bag too early.

Oh heck – who am I kidding? I just can’t keep a secret!

Shh, I didn’t tell you we’re bringing on a couple expert trainers to give you tips on video, and I made no mention of the video podcast we’re just weeks from launching with a behind-the-scenes special.

Oh no, I made no mention of it – but even if I did, you better know I’m keeping the rest to myself!

Gotta keep at least a few things in the dark to keep you wondering

Don’t mind me, I’m just testing the new Breaking News section. This is where you will be able to keep up-to-the-minute on what you should know right now.

This section will be updated every several hours once we get it kicking – so hang on, it’s coming!

It’s still going to be a few months before you start seeing the really big changes (and “mum”s the word), but in the mean time you can expect plenty of previews and whispers about all that we have in store for you.

I mentioned a few months ago that we’re breaking GenXXL – oh yes, we have lots of that to do still for sure – and building it into a true resource for you. We hit a few larger than expected road blocks, but we’re back on track now.

The last of our transition to the womb happens this weekend, and we’re hoping to resolve all the pesky problems that come with running a years-old site over the course of the next week. After that, let the renovation begin!

Just in case you missed our exclusive coverage of the first annual Axio Labs Strongman Contest in beautiful South Africa, here’s your chance to experience more than mere words and pictures can express.

Check out the video to watch these beasts take on Africa stones in a medley walk, Atlas Stones for repetition, and other massively heavy objects in Axio Labs’ own rendition of classic strength athletics.

We will break the site, we will stuff it to the brim, and in the end we hope to make GenXXL everything you want and need. We’re not just going to cover sports anymore – we’re going to help you become an athlete while also keeping you up to date on all your favorite pros. Our coverage of sports is expanding too. If it’s played anywhere in the world, we’ll be there.

So if you’re tired of just watching – if you really want to get off that couch and show ‘em what you’re made of – think of GenXXL as your key to success. Welcome to your future.
