house is 10/10 gym is 10/10 wife is 10/10 my guy is living life....
Thank you and I can’t argue with that.
when he is 10/10 good things follow
Dude you guys are rock stars
He sure gives me some good ideas about healthy Philippines living!
@@ItsMe_Philippines 2 1/2 eggs per week

never take ur life for granted, ur house, gym, marriage and lifestyle is amazing for someone who isn't rich you made it man
Thank you! I try to stay focused on the important things like building great memories, life experiences, and spending time with friends and family. You buying expensive items, clothing, or a cool vehicle wouldn’t actually actually make me happier.
Rich is relative. This is not middle class.
@@tomriddle6968 right, it takes funds for that spread
I am so jealous in a good way
Come on over for a visit!
@@ItsMe_Philippines my goal is to save up for one more year and take the leap over there! 🙏
@@bobbyjonas2332 come on over!
Hair is back, muscles are on point. Life is looking good over there W
I can’t complain!
That gym is awesome. Great video as always.
Sound bar and sub are Bluetooth right to my phone so makes workouts nice
Selling my house , selling my truck.
Packing my bags . Im tired of the stress that hinders my progress. Solid thanks. Time to rebuild myslef
You got this!
Love it brother and our health is our wealth!! Great video - very informative
We can be active and healthy in our 60s or we can be in a wheelchair in our 60s, it’s up to us!
You definitely went “all-in” on your home gym. We need to get more equipment for my gym at my wife’s house in the Philippines but for now I will just get my long distance bicycle rides. Thanks for sharing the healthy lifestyle in the Philippines, I don’t really see many expat channels that have fit foreigners that promote a healthy lifestyle.
No, unfortunately, we do not see that. I wish I saw it more often because it’s such a great country for that lifestyle.
@@ItsMe_Philippines my wife and I try to stay healthy. We have a larger age gap but not that extreme as we often see in PHL. She’s 34 and I’m 51. Anyway I will keep healthy and not be a “start over dad” but just taking care of my wife and her daughter that is 12 now and known me as her daddy for 10 years.
Dude just living in the philippines is a healthy lifestyle. No need for gym over exertion there
You have made a series of good decisions. Your life is so good! And yes, home gym you built is on fire! 🔥🔥
Thank you, and I am very happy with how life is turning out!
You are doing it right by focusing on health, as it's hard to regain when you lose it. After a decade of not being able to work out due to cardiomyopathy, my heart function came up to 50% and I'm with a personal trainer again. It's amazing how much ground I lost and how weak I've become, but I love being in the gym again. As soon as I can get my hiatal hernia fixed I will go back to OMAD carnivore and the excess fat will melt away. Keep up the good work guys!
I did that diet for six months back in the states and I was lean! Just focus my friend and keep your head up.
@@ItsMe_Philippines Yeah I did it for a year before I got the hernia and dropped 80 pounds. I'm a man on a mission. Love your channel man. Hope you and the wifey are well!
@@ItsMe_PhilippinesI’m currently carnivore in Canada and doing well. Do you think it would be hard to get good quality beef in Philippines? I can see fish is no problem..
You make awesome videos! I’m planning on coming out to the Philippines in another year.
Thank you and what islands are you heading to?
Nice one bro, u got so shredded, enjoy the beautiful life you built for yourself and your family!
Thanks bro!
“ stop cleaning that thing, you clean it three times a day, and you don’t have visitors”… I’m not sure what that meant, but it gave me a chuckle.
Love it bro your my new guy!! Healthy eating, exercise subscribed!!!!!
Thanks bro!
Thanks Cory, this entire video is very awesome. Educational, informative, and most of all encouraging. (And is among the best 'local food market shopping' videos I think I've ever seen.)
Thank you!
Hercules 🏆 & his very Fit wife! Always have a better day after watching your cool Vlogs. Thanks for sharing !
Thank you!
Lucky si Kordapia at si Kaloy nakamura jan dahil and mahal dito sa abroad! Mabuhay!

😆 you knew how I response already 😆
You guys have life by the balls, brother…🔥❤️⚡️
Well said and thanks brother
You have a decent setup for what you want. I've been training for 54 years now and I like variety, so the first thing I look for is a good gym. I'm living in Boracay now, its good in every way, good air conditioned gym, beautiful beaches, cheap living. But Have to get all my supplements mailed in and for any bodybuilder that wonder gear is abundant here in the Philippines!
Great video! Hope you and the "fam" is doing great! :)
Thank you and we are!
Hey brother I every once in awhile check up on you guys when I'm not working like 75hrs a week. Anyways, just wanted to say my how your wife has warmed up to the camera. She used to be so camera shy when I first stumbled upon your channel a good while ago now. You guys seem well. Jealous over here in NC!
Take care broski.
You guys are an awesome couple. Thanks for sharing your adventures. I wish you both many more.
Thank you, my friend. I always appreciate a positive comment.
Nice setup for staying in top fitness...Really has come together...
I remember you putting this together...Now it's perfect...
Life is good! Enjoy!
🙏🙏🙏
👍😎👍
Thank you my friend!
I am new here and I have been binge watching your video!! Just got home from the Philippines for a 1 month vacation and it was truly amazing! My family is from Bacolod City, Philippines
That’s our favorite city to visit! Show me a couple hours north for us. Happy your enjoying the channel!
The beatings will stop as soon as the Filipina is fed. 🤣 My mouth was watering looking at all those fresh fruits and vegetables. She cooks too! What a blessing. Post your macros, please.
She loves cooking!
Always motivational to have a partner that trains and has a healthy lifestyle and of course balance. Great to see a modern a couple..all the best 😊
Thank you for that great comment!
Coffee mugs, hats, T-shirts and Hoodies with logo saying "Of course!" and a cartoon picture of Raquel's surprised face and you with dumbbells in the background saying "Rabekah" or "It's Me" LoL Y'all definitely stay fit. I'm thinking of trying the Outside gym idea you've got there, just worried about moisture causing rust and also damaging electronics. Great vlog.
Thank you, for leaning towards swallowing it in at some point in the future. I’m not having moisture problem so much as dust and lizard poop on all the equipment lol
"Feed the Filipina."
I live by this mantra.
Key component to a successful marriage.
100% agree!
YES, The way to my Brazilian 🇧🇷 wife’s heart ❤ was / is through her stomach. As an amateur American 🇺🇸 chef I make certain she’s loved, protected and well fed with healthy non processed food, low fat meat, veggies, fruits (papaya, mango, pineapple) filtered water utilizing recipes both 🇺🇸 and 🇧🇷. After giving up dating impossible 🇺🇸 feminist women we met here in Florida 🇺🇸 married and processed the 🇺🇸 immigration documents$$$$. She’s smart, courageous, determined, funny, sexy and beautiful.
@jemezfun9767 That's an incredible way to take care of someone. May your two's relationship be long , happy and healthy.
Great video guys. Loving your content.
Thank you!
badass home gym and then backyard eggs right after. what a day!
you should consider a video about learning the language if youve been trying
I'm working on it and do ok with it.
I just started the carnivore diet a few weeks back, it absolutely sucked the fiest two weeks but I’m feeling better. More energy and the aches and pains are decreasing and lost 15 pounds. Great video bud and wifey is looking fabulous as usual.
That diet is great and yeah it will take weeks to adjust. At first it's hard to focus.
I need to fly to the Philippines once a month to do my seafood, veggie/fruit groceries shopping, the seafood here where I live costs an arm and a leg to say the least and it's not fresh like there. Love the gym and greenery around the house, feels very peaceful.
Nope. Roosters, kereoke and motorbikes everywhere in that country
love the gym and the construction of it video!
Thank you!
Nice video guys. Can’t believe how cheap Tuna is there in the Philippines.
When I return there in November, I will start renovating my house I bought in Quezon City! Get a membership at Anytime Fitness and get my fresh meats at a local market. Keep up with your lifestyle Corey and your wife and live another 50+ years in PARADISE!
Thank you!. I’ve been to quite a few anytime fitnesses and I’ve always liked this set up.
Nice video. Love your workout gym. Nice grocery run. I see you keep up on the prices of food items. Which is great. I just go to the store and buy my items without comparing...lol. Thanks for sharing, you two. Stay healthy and safe...🎥😃👍👌👊💪🙏
Thank you, my friend. I always appreciate your positive comments.
Cory, your hair is coming in good. The good life is treating you well. You are a very lucky man and thanks for the vids.
Coming there in August and I think about it everyday
Thank you, and congrats. What island are you heading to?
@@ItsMe_Philippines Luzon and Palawan
The shopping video was great. Most expats exist on coffee and donuts. So helpful to see an athlete focused on health do some grocery shopping so I can get a real idea of prices
Happy to help!
Yesterday my boyfriend and I went for a walk and he asked if I was ready to go. I said, "of course!" and he responded the same way you to do Raquel.. it made me laugh and think of you guys 😂
That’s to funny lol
I have a similar lifestyle in the US, but with no wife or kids at 43. Eating right and exercise makes all the difference! 🎉😊
100%! The funny thing is is people always ask me what supplements I take and I start laughing. I tell them to exercise and eat healthy for 10 years and they realize they don’t need any.
Great Video!!! Key to cardio is either watching TV, movies or listening to music while you do it!!
100% a must
Haha. Working out in a country just above the equator with no AC. Guaranteed a good sweat every single time. Thanks for sharing.
I drop weight no matter what I do lol
Great content brother! Keep up the great work 👍
Thanks brother!
You have nice house and beautiful wife🎉
100% agree with you! And thank you
Love your lifestyle!! Goals!!!
Thank you!
Wow that whole place has turned into a paradise 😍. Really enjoy tye helpful advice abd hopefully next year I'm there.
Thank you very much what island are you hoping to visit?
I love your guys channel. I’m coming to the Philippines in September and your channel is a big reason why. Love the content!!
Thank you! What island are you heading to?
My flight lands in Manila. I’m gonna try and play it by ear and just let the slow vibe of the Philippines direct me where to go. I’m under no time constraints because I’m a traveling nurse in the US and can take off for a long as I like. I’d like to travel around to get the vibe of the Philippines so I plan on going to different islands if I can
@@rcupit1976 Do that! Manila is not on my top 20 places to see lol
@@ItsMe_Philippines I’m totally open to suggestions brother!! Lemme know places you think I should see and I’ll put them in the list. I have a friend that’s a pastor in Manila that was born here that I want to surprise first!!
I also have an anytime fitness gym membership and noticed they have some locations in Manila. I still want to get my workouts in while I’m there
You two are doing so well. Congratulations!
Thank you
Another excellent video Thanks for sharing. That's a whole lot of fish, wow! Exercising, I love to bicycle but I think if I tried it in the Philippines I'd be dead in a week. 😂
hahahahaha
I would like to see a video of you working out and the exercises you do. Like do you do a push pull split?
Won't be doing any workout videos because it's way off the topic of this channel. Only did this video because basic health questions get asked often. I love designing programs for people but can't mix fitness & coaching with my travel content.
My first time seeing your channel! Very nice content. I'm a 71 yr old bodybuilder since the golden era in the 70's in California, One of the things I discovered when visiting PI is the food is always so much better than what we have here now days. Also having a Filipina wife cooking is the best.
Nice! What island are you on?
@@ItsMe_Philippines Currently in Southern California, Santa Barbara. When staying in PI Dasmarias, Cavite, Luzon
Those are some lucky cats, beats the hell out of friskies. Awesome. All those fruits and vegetables look great too, picked ripe by the people who grew it, instead of being trucked across the country and gassed to make it look ripe. I so want to live in this kind of place where you buy from the local grower, yes we have farmers markets but they are hard to get too and have limited availability. But I'll pass on the fried shrimp heads. Great video, glad you stressed the importance of diet over exercise/weights.
Food intake really is 90% of how you look!
Good to monitor BP and glucose... like most of us men we ignore those things... mid 50's i ended up in the er with bp over 200.... I stroked out. All in control now but if i had monitored earlier would have never been an issue. S/F Brother!
I’ve seen to many people ignore things and then hurt themselves. I’d rather be proactive!
@ItsMe_Philippines Great advice, brother.... it's kinda a male thing we ignore signs.... er docs told me "I bet you just went to bed and slepped it off" ... exactly what I did!
Ive been wondering about this subject since i found your channel. Thanks dude.
Anytime my friend and feel free to shoot me an email if you have any questions
All good big fella.
I do have a question, Did you try working opposite muscle groups together? just wondering
Stay safe and be careful on the workouts.
ALL THE BEST to you two…
Yes, I’ve tried a lot of splits over the years. So I’ve liked more than others but eventually I’ll end up switching after a couple months.
@@ItsMe_Philippines All good just thought I’d ask because “ waaay back when” lol I used them when I hit a plateau it held to get over it and it gives a good pump…
ALL THE BEST…
I had to workout outside for several years while we built our place. It's a 100° here in Texas right now. A climate controlled gym is nice when you're in your 60s. When I retired my workout routine changed completely. Adjusted for the life style change.
Agreed
I like your gym setup. I've never understood why Filipinos don't grow more greens. I couldn't find vegetables like lettuces, broccoli, kale, and spinach when I was there last year. Maybe it's too hot or too wet? And do you have a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) or some other type? I'm surprised your blood sugar levels are OK given all the rice, pineapple, and mangos you eat. They'll usually spike one's level regardless of whether you exercise or not (unless you exercise right after eating). Good content. Thanks!
My two high carb meals are both before my workouts. High protein meals afterwards and then moderate protein and high fat meals for the others. Kale and lettuce are rare here and I don’t know why but spinach is sold cheap everywhere.
Awesome video guys we live in Dicapulao Airora Philippines , We just subscribed 😄
Thanks for the sub!
Love, this. Like seeing a little training and healthy eating.
Thank you, my lifestyle so happy making the video.
Another great video ,always enjoy your content. Wishing you and Raquel all the best.
Thank you!
OH GIRL! LOL, Another great video.
Am a gym rat as well and have for most of my life, don't subscribe to the daily cardio regimen and theory though but as long as the blood work stays good Just do what you do and you guys are doing it very well!
Thanks for posting!
3:20 Your picture quality here is really, really good!
Good day, Another great video.. That is something I really like about shopping at the market when I am in the PI, everything is fresh. That is a lot of Tuna, you must have a lot of different ways of eating that much of tuna? What about chicken for another source of protein? You must be climatized, I played 2hrs of Pickle ball and I perhydrate before hand and hydrated during knowing I would sweat, wow I thought I was playing in a sauna... Never sweat so much in my life and still cramped up. Keep moving forward..
She makes all kinds of different things with it. I'm adapted to the weather rather well and adjusted in the first couple months.
Great job on your home/ compound, nothing like the Philippine living🙏👏
Agreed!
Hi brother, another great video, keep grinding and from me to you and your family. Happy 4th of July
Thanks brother
I am very impressed by your exercise regime. No wonder you both look so fit.
She looks amazing regardless and I struggle to just look “ok” lol
@@ItsMe_Philippines , you look better than just ok. I wish husband worked out like you do.
I have been in cebu for 20 months and I watched your vlog before coming here. I started a restaurant in cebu and am curious what you think about lettuce, tomatoes, onion, and potatoes prices here. We buy from Carbon Market and prices on lettuce and potatoes especially are considerably more than in 🇺🇸!
Great video! I appreciate you including more detail about the cat food. Curious what Filipinas feed their pet dogs. Awesome vegetable garden. Those red peppers looked great! Since building the house, have you had any issues with snakes coming into your garden or backyard?
Thank you! and no I have never once seen a snake here.
how is it to get hormones from pharmacies, same like in thailand where its mostly available in most tourist areas?
Only have one script and it’s not hormone related so I honestly don’t know.
Looking healthy guys! Love the videos and just shows how you can live super healthy in the Phils. With all that fresh "real" food available at the markets, I bet the cost is a quarter cost of doing the same in the States?
Fresh vegetables and fruit are extremely cheap! Except a few weird things that are imported like Kiwi or strawberry.
Hi friend.. love your new hair. Your gym is fantastic. Having your own is the best. Then you can train bare-ass without people starting to complain😜🤣😂
lol
Bro your biceps are bigger than her waist 😳
Lol bigger than her thighs and my thighs are bigger than her waist
Also… I know this trip to the Philippines will be a “vacation” but I am also looking forward to experiencing some of the everyday life things also. I would actually enjoy touring the market! I am a Mr. Organic & fresh food kinda guy. 😉
You’ll have a blast while you’re here, my friend!
Hey mate love the channel and congrats to you and the wife. Good on you for working out and keeping it up over in the Philippines too. I love working out too 6 days a week 185 cm 6 foot 1 tall 132 kilograms of weight (I’m 40 years old) also hope to find my Filipina too. There’s a lot of amazing qualities they have to like and I’m on Filipino Cupid so let’s see. Thanks for sharing 😊and wish you both all the best. Keep it up yeah buddy 😉 🎉🎉
Once you get fed up with that site with all of the fake accounts and scammers, let me know. I have a link in the description for a reputable site that supports people and interviews all of the girls. Regarding the site you’re on, I looked there myself and regretted it just like thousands of others have done.
@@ItsMe_Philippines thanks Corey for the reply and keep training legend lightweight 😉. Great channel keep it up.
Man I really need to schedule that hair transplant. It makes such a huge difference.
Massive difference!
Your wife is so cute and funny with a little sassy Cory 😂… I really like your channel.
Thank you
Epic Vid
Thank you!
Please show more cooking, like how she fries Shrimp heads, and did you guy's ever get fish for your ponds ?
I was 100% interested in how you were eating healthy regularly. I enjoy Filipino food, but it's usually a major calorie bomb.
If I stick with fish and vegetables when I go out, I don’t have a problem. But most of their chicken and beef will have too much oil and pork is 70% fat.
healthy lifestyle is the best and to enjoy PI - palenke always an adventure - ingat always
Exactly! Thank you
Very interesting video, I've started building a commercial gym here on Bohol, no room for a home gym 😢
Bohol needs a nice gym
That’s a perfect gym set up can’t wait to move there
Thank you!
It's my dream: fresh fruit and veg, home grown. No wonder you both look healthy. And you also have the time to work out.
It’s the way life should be!
Great vids! I never gain weights every time i visits to Philippines! It is too warm hot and humid, it sweating a lot. But in the u.s. i cant live without it working out to the gym. It just makes me feel sick without that sweating! Especially in the winter season weather that hardly get sweating! lol 😂
So true! We do adapt over time so the heat is not so bad after a while.
Great set up cory, lovely cean home , testament to you mate, luv from Australia 🦘🦘🦘🐊🐊🐊.
Thank you! I’d like to visit Australia at some point. However, you have more things that can kill you than anywhere else in the world lol
You should have your wife's face on a coffee mug with the quote "of course" 😂
That will be one of them lol
Tshirts and coffee mugs great idea!!!!
Working on it!
How do you have time to work? I assume your job is remote?
My goal was to retire at 40 and I’ve gone over that a few times. I still work about 10 sometimes more hours a week online.
I would have to make a couple of visits to see what area I feel comfortable
Smart decision
If you ever get bored, you could try to start a health and fitness channel and see how it does. I think you've got something unique here that sets you apart from all the others, and that might be enough to siphon off some viewers from those other channels.
That space is a real money maker, not that you need it, I suppose. It sure would occupy your time if you feel like retirement life is too boring. Of course, it could easily turn into a real full time job, which might not be something you want.
Anyway, you've got options, which is nice to have.
I still always think about it because I’m very passionate about that. I just know there’s so much competition in the space is very saturated. I do agree with you that there’s a lot of money in that industry compared to what I’m doing.
Haha you two banter just like my Filipina and me 😂 love it
lol thank you
Great video and thanks for the price and weight conversion ❤. That was a hell of a buy on tuna 🍣 and shrimp 🦐 🎉. What would you ballpark the cost difference at ? How much more would it cost to buy that kind of diet in the USA?
Not sure because I have not shopped there in years! But I'm told roughly 5 to 10 times higher.
Great Video. I'm an American and I'll be in the Philippines the entire summer. It's really taking me some time to figure out how to get exercise and nutrition here. I'm figuring it, but it's much easier in USA. Ironically I've lost a lot of weight here (both fat and muscle).
I shop in an AC grocery store, and have only bought a little bit on the streets and open markets. I also am a sucker for the processed coffee drinks at 7-11.
There are no nearby gyms, so If I lived here I would probably need a home gym. I do 100 pushups and some squats/lunges just to get something in. I also walk, because I don't have a car.
I would also probably need multiple refrigerators to keep all the food if I lived here. Phillipino street food is not really a healthy option. Anyway, thanks for making this video. I was thinking about making a nutrition video for Phillippines life.
You can do it but packing food and buying locally.
Im retired after 28 years of wearing a badge with the Sheriffs office. Bought my military time to add on to it. Been married twice each wife took everything including my dog /weedeater and homes. Got a good pension for the rest of my life. get social security when I turn 62. Not looking to get married again but to spend time with the right person. how does the culture there feel about that ? Its not a sex thing either both wives took my manhood. court ordered
That's not a problem when you explain it like you did. I know a few guys in very similar situations doing great. Do you know what area you want to retire in?
Nice video👍You both r very disciplined!
That's the way to success!
@@ItsMe_Philippines You are right! My son is in a police 👮♂️ academy, they lost 9 recruits in first 2 weeks. He’s doing well. Tough though, just got tear gassed & OC sprayed. The Redman is coming 😱soon. You were in the marines. I know that probably contributes to your discipline. Great couple to exercise as a team 👍
Perfect👍🏼. I’ll let u know when we r there. Btw, I’m Ronny
Sounds good, my friend. Shoot me an email or IG message so we can keep in touch.
coffee cup with "of course" on it, LOL. BTW when you go to Thailand will you be hooking up with Tracie?
Crunchy shrimp heads, Oh Girl...
lol
You two remind me of that old show "I Love Lucy". Funny stuff.
hahahaha I haven't seen that show in at least 20 years.
This makes me laugh at those absolute disgusting haters that used to comment at you about you and your girl when you have literally created the absolute dream life for her, to western standards OR ANY STANDARDS anywhere!
You are living like Royalty 👑 Nice work ✌🏼
Great comment and thank you! No comment will bother my while I'm enjoying my life.
