Professional career

Krissy Chin (born January 24, 1980) is a professional figure competitor from the United States. She qualified for Ms. Olympia in 2009–2012 and finished in 16th position in 2009–2011. She won the NPC Team Universe in 2007 and Northern California Pro Bikini in 2014,[2] about 18 months after becoming a mother. She is sponsored by Gaspari Nutrition, a bodybuilding supplements company based in the United Kingdom.[3]

Chin's lineage comes from mainland China, though her mother was born in New York and her father in Hong Kong.[4] They both died of cancer in the 1990s. Chin graduated in 2000 from Touro College in New York with a master's degree in physical therapy. She started competing in fitness and bodybuilding in 2003 as an amateur, and became professional in 2007. Chin is married to Troy Johnson, who is also a bodybuilding fan.[2] On November 26, 2012, she gave birth to a girl named London Johnson, and for this reason was away from competitions in 2013.[5] She finished second at the 2012 IFBB California Governors Cup not knowing that she was 6 weeks pregnant – she was taking birth control pills and did not plan to become a mother yet.[3] That year she qualified for her fourth consecutive Ms. Olympia,[6] but had to withdraw.
