Sport and proper nutrition have been especially relevant topics over the past 6–7 years. Today, being healthy and in good shape—close to ideal—is not only a way to feel good, but also fashionable.
Fitness models are considered the standard for a harmonious body. Some understand this well and use their popularity to encourage as many people as possible to develop fitness habits—a positive trend without a doubt. Russian model Svetlana Bilyalova is one of them.
Who is Svetlana Bilyalova?
Svetlana Bilyalova, also known as the “Russian doll,” is an Instagram sensation and one of Russia’s most popular and sexiest models, although she currently lives in Los Angeles. She has both Russian and Tatar roots, and her graceful, toned figure, perfect features, and long black hair capture everyone’s attention.
She is now a successful fitness model and blogger, with over 6 million Instagram followers and over 24 million on Twitter. She began her career in this field more than five years ago, posting funny videos on the now-defunct video channel KipyaTALK. This helped her gain popularity and gradually become a recognizable face. She then began sharing photos and videos of her gym workouts on social media. These videos let her followers see how she managed to lose the 20 kilograms she had gained after giving birth to her son in just three months.
Her videos and photos aim to motivate people to exercise more. She herself began training even harder at the age of 25 and achieved impressive results over three years. This gradually won her fans around the world, who, as mentioned, now number more than 6 million.
“I always knew exactly what I wanted to achieve in life. I knew how I wanted to look and how to entertain my followers so they would always be interested in my page. You don’t need to look like a model. It’s important to understand what you’re good at, focus on it, and confidently work toward your goal, step by step,” she says.
As a result of her hard work at the gym, the 28-year-old beauty now has ideal proportions:
- bust – 90 cm
- waist – 59 cm
- hips – 90 cm
She is 1.73 m tall and weighs 56 kg.
How does Sveta Bilyalova work out?
Sveta Bilyalova works out 3 to 5 times a week, with her workouts lasting between 30 and 50 minutes. She advises her followers to follow this routine if they want to say goodbye to excess fat and tone their muscles.
Her favorites are short, high-intensity workouts and cardio. To maintain her perfect measurements, she mainly does compound exercises, as they work several muscle groups at once. These include dumbbell deadlifts, forward lunges, weighted hyperextensions, and more.
She says that, in addition to improving physical fitness, working out also enhances the appearance and health of the skin, making it smooth and radiant—something every woman would want.
“Throughout my adult life, I’ve worked very hard at the gym to stay in shape. My main goal, of course, is to keep my butt toned. Without the gym, it wouldn’t look the way it does. Sometimes I struggle to lose weight. I always eat healthily, but that alone isn’t enough. When I need to lose weight, I focus mainly on vegetables and do an hour of cardio every day. Eventually, I get lean and feel happy with the way I look,” she tells her followers.
Besides being a big fitness enthusiast, Sveta Bilyalova loves boxing, tennis, and cycling, and often unwinds with video games and chess. In 2016, she became captain of the Russian models’ football team.
What does Svetlana Bilyalova do?
Svetlana inspires and motivates fitness enthusiasts around the world. In addition to creating videos and photos for Instagram, the brunette is the face of various fashion brands, models lingerie, and appears in professional photo shoots and music videos for pop stars. Svetlana plans to pursue an acting career, convinced that hard work and motivation can help her achieve any goal.
