I’ve been very busy lately, as usual. With Thanksgiving happening tomorrow and Christmas around the corner, I wanted to share a quick update on what I’ve been up to. I’m down more weight, but not as much as I’d like. I haven’t gained since I started, at least.
I decided to shift my focus from pure cardio, to a mixed balance of cardio, abs, and weight-lifting.
I created an alternating weight loss workout plan that I switch up, bi-weekly, in order to keep it fresh. Here it is below:

Aside from talking about my new workout plan, I discuss some of the projects I’m excited to be a part of. One in particular is the Jacksonville Short Film Showcase; I designed the official website for the first ever contest for that event: http://jaxshortfilmshowcase.com
Also, there is a contest going on at Upside Down Creative Media. You have one more week to sign up to win the official promotional poster for Human Blanket, autographed by me and Robby Moccio. Watch this to find out more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7so3NVJB7A
