Will Tennyson
Canadian fitness YouTuber who tests diets, gyms and supplements on himself, from the world’s most expensive gym membership to a Temu-only home gym, and wrote the high-protein cookbook Bite Me.
Fitness · YouTube · Updated Sep 29, 2026
Will Tennyson is a Canadian fitness YouTuber who turns the questions gym-goers already ask into experiments he runs on himself: the world’s most expensive gym membership, a gym built only from Temu, a week at the world’s most hated gym, a trip to the country where it is illegal to be fat. He started in 2019 with full-day-of-eating and celebrity diet videos, and trained and competed on camera with Greg Doucette and Chris Bumstead along the way. His YouTube has about 5.4 million subscribers and more than 1.5 billion views. In December 2025 DK published his cookbook, Bite Me, 100 low-calorie, high-protein recipes.

Questions people ask
Who is Will Tennyson?
Will Tennyson is a fitness YouTuber from Canada who makes long-form experiments about food and training: extreme diets, $10,000-a-month gyms, banned energy drinks, “every legal performance enhancer.” He has about 5.4 million subscribers on YouTube, and in December 2025 he published a cookbook, Bite Me.

He is 32. Famous Birthdays lists his birthday as August 30, 1994, and his birthplace as Toronto.
What is Will Tennyson’s real name? Is Will Tennyson his real name?
Will Tennyson is the name on his channel, his Instagram and the cover of his Penguin Random House cookbook. No fuller or different name has been published, so that is the one we use.

How tall is Will Tennyson? What is his height and weight?
He has not published a height we would cite, though he did make a video called “I Became Really Tall For A Day.” Weight is not something we cover.

No hockey career has been published. His Shorts include a race against a pro hockey player, but on camera his sport is the gym.
Who is Will Tennyson married to? Who is his dad?
Not something we cover.

Not something we cover.

YouTube @WillTennyson for the long experiments and Shorts, Instagram @willtenny, and Facebook. His older collaborations with Greg Doucette, including a 2022 one-rep-max competition, are still on his channel.
What is Will Tennyson’s net worth?
He does not publish a number and neither do we.
Who represents Will Tennyson?
His YouTube channel lists a business email. Ames Create does not represent him; we cover him because he turned the question every gym-goer asks into a repeatable, big-budget experiment. If that changes, this entry will say so.
Our read
Ames Create does not work with Will Tennyson. This is our view, from a team that works on creator brands for a living.
The format. Every video takes a question people already argue about, the diet, the gym, the supplement, and answers it by doing it to himself for a day, a week or 100 hours. He plays test subject and skeptic at once, and the verdict at the end is the payoff.
Why it travels. The titles run on superlatives and price tags: most expensive, most hated, banned, $10k a month. That reaches people who have never lifted. The Shorts carry it further; a World’s Strongest Man on a bar grip machine has more than 95 million views.
Brand fit. Supplements, nutrition and tracking apps, high-protein food, kitchen products and gym equipment. His recent descriptions carry Prozis and MacroFactor codes, and the cookbook gives food brands a natural recipe tie-in. The honest limit is category: a supplement brand would be sharing his feed with one that is already there.
