Hello, friends!
You probably know about the amazing strength of a girl who has been weightlifting since childhood. And her father was in charge of her training.
This little girl has twice entered the Guinness Book of World Records with amazing achievements:
At the age of eight, she was able to lift a barbell weighing 100 kilograms, while her own weight was only 40 kilograms.
At the age of fourteen, she managed to fulfil the weightlifting standards, which are passed by masters of sports, without resorting to the use of prohibited drugs.
Her name is Akulova Varya. She was born on 11.01.1992 in Krivoy Rog, Dnepropetrovsk region, in Ukraine. She is called by everyone – ‘Super Girl’.
As of today, Vara is twenty-eight years old and will soon turn twenty-nine. The peak of her fame came at the beginning of the two-thousand years.
At that time, she set new records and performed with her parents in the circus.
Just her father, Yuri Akulov, was able to instil in her a passion for sports competitions and taught her all the necessary exercises. He dreamed of her Olympic future and international fame.
Popularity came to Varvara very soon. She was heard about not only in Ukraine, but also abroad. World publications called her ‘the strongest girl on the planet’.
However, at some point Varvara disappeared from the news. For more than ten years nothing was heard about her either in the press or on television.
What was she doing all these years? How did she live? What does she look like now?
After she finished school Varvara decided to enter the Institute of Physical Education in Kiev and finished it with 2 red diplomas – Bachelor and Master.
She then started training people in a fitness club and started travelling around the globe.
As the athlete says: ‘I love what I do and have always given it my all. I am constantly travelling and that makes me happy!’
Varya prefers active holidays instead of quiet get-togethers. Her Instagram is full of posts about various activities such as snowboarding, snowshoeing, ballooning and skydiving.
Interestingly, she has over 1,900 people subscribed to her Instagram page.
After 14 years, she has transformed from a girl athlete into a charming beauty.
This is what Varya looks like now:
What do you think of her transformation? Would you recognise her on the street?
