"Dear trans kids, a thriving life is possible." Hey there, I'm Isaac — friends call me Ice. Let's get this done together.

I'm a man of trans experience from the Philippines, now living in Auckland, New Zealand. As , I'm all about setting and crushing goals, whether it's in the gym, my mind, or my life. This space is a shoutout to my younger self and anyone who needs it.

training is a privilege for me.

i’ve experienced being bedridden before, so i never take movement for granted now.

i used to lift mainly to build a more masculine physique.
these days, i train to maintain, and keep my mind right.

the physique is a bonus.
the real win is what it does for my head.

Psychology 101: People pick up on subtle cues
Your tone, body language, and consistency.

If you always break your promises to yourself or say yes to everything, subconsciously they will think,
na “basta basta ka lang”

But when you do what you said you’d do, set boundaries, and don’t tolerate disrespect,
people notice that you have standards.

Suddenly, the way they treat you changes.

Instant? Magic? Nope.
It’s just people responding to the energy you give yourself.

But in all seriousness, I make content to be visible.

As a trans millennial, I grew up fighting to exist. Fighting to be validated. Fighting to be affirmed. There weren’t many people who looked like me, living fully and openly.

So now, I show up.

Not just for the algorithm but for the younger version of me who needed to see that this life was possible.

This page is visibility.
It’s advocacy without always shouting.
It’s proof that a trans man can live a soft, steady, ordinary, beautiful life. 🫶🏽

Being a trans man of color whose first language isn’t English isn’t easy.

People will try to make you feel inferior, but it doesn’t matter.

I show up for myself every day.

Self-respect is my quiet power.

Done with my annual Round the Bays run! 🏃‍♂️ Always awesome seeing friends out there doing it too.

This year had some of the best weather we’ve had for the event. Last year I told myself I wanted to beat my time from the year before… but I didn’t, and I was pretty disappointed. So this year I changed my mindset and decided to just enjoy the run.

Funny enough, I finished 5 minutes faster than last year and 1 minute faster than my PB from two years ago. Sometimes letting go of the pressure actually helps.

Big thanks to Ibs through NorthPower for sponsoring me again, and to my lovely wife for dropping me off, picking me up, and waiting for me at the finish line. You’re the best. ❤️

And of course, coming home to Burrito and Bobby’s cuddles afterwards made it even better.

1. Take ownership of your wellbeing.

Walang ibang gagawa nito for you. Educate yourself. Consult a professional. Move your body. Fix your sleep. Protect your peace.

2. Set clear goals then break them into small, repeatable actions.

Don’t just say “I want to grow.” Be specific.
Gusto mo ba gumanda katawan? Start 3x gym a week. Gusto mo magstart mag T? Mag research ka.

3. Track your progress.

Hindi pwedeng basta lang. Track your workouts. Track your finances. Mag journal ka. Kahit simple notes lang sa phone. What gets measured, gets improved.

4. Stay consistent even when motivation drops.

Real talk na hindi ka laging inspired. May days na tamad ka. May days na dysphoric ka. Do it anyway. Kahit bare minimum.

5. Adjust, don’t quit.

If something’s not working, baguhin mo ung strategy, not the goal. Hindi failure ang adjustment. Growth yan.
