Chloe Ting (born 9 April 1986[2]) is a fitness personality YouTuber based in New York.[3] She is known as the most subscribed fitness content creator on YouTube,[4] and for her workout programs, particularly her "Two Week Shred Challenge" which went viral on TikTok and YouTube during the pandemic in 2020.

Early life and education

Ting was born in Brunei and moved to Melbourne, Australia at age 16.[5] She has a Bachelor of Commerce from Monash University and later obtained a Master of Philosophy from the same institution.[6] Ting is also a NASM Certified Personal Trainer.[7][8]

Career

Prior to starting a YouTube channel, Ting worked as an actuarial analyst.[9] She has published a thesis on financial markets and was a Presenter & Chairperson at the Australasian Finance & Banking Conference.[10]

YouTube

Ting began her self-titled YouTube channel in 2011 while she was still working in statistics.[11] She started posting videos from March 2016, when she was 29 years old. Originally, her content discussed fashion and travel, but by 2017, her channel became entirely focused on fitness.[9][12] Her August 2019 video, "Get Abs in Two Weeks", went viral after other bloggers and vloggers tried the workouts depicted therein.[13] As of September 2023, that video has 517 million views.[14][15]

During summer 2020 when many were in quarantine due to COVID-19, Ting's "Two Week Shred Challenge" rose to popularity on the video-sharing application TikTok.[11][16] In December 2020, YouTube released their official report[17] for top trending videos and creators in 2020, with Ting appearing in charts worldwide across the US,[17] UK,[18] and Asia.[19] Digital Journal determined that Ting was the most-influential at home workout content creator.[20]

As of September 2023, Ting's YouTube channel has over 24.9 million subscribers.[21][22]

Defamation Lawsuit

In 2021, Ting filed a defamation lawsuit against an individual and a company who made defamatory comments and content about her and her channel.[23][24] In August 2023, Ting published a video titled "Finally talking about it."[25] where she revealed the conclusion of the legal proceedings, and that it had concluded in her favour and she had received settlement sum payouts from both parties with the proceedings concluded.[25]

Personal life

In 2021, Ting left Melbourne and moved to Singapore.[26] In 2023, Ting had left Singapore and is now in New York.[3] Ting is known to suffer from small intestinal bacterial overgrowth.[27] Ting's video production partner and boyfriend was Adrian.[28] Chloe and Adrian broke up around April 2020 which she shares in her video titled "Juicy Q&A | Relationship, YouTube, Favorite workout".[29] It is unclear if they still work together or not.
