Biography

edit

Kuznetsova began powerlifting at fourteen years of age[4] in an attempt to gain muscle mass.[5][1][6] She graduated from Moscow State Academy of Physical Culture in 2013.

Trukhina is sponsored by the sports nutrition brands Oxytropin and RPS Nutrition. In 2019, she signed a contract with Rich Piana's 5% Nutrition.[1]

She has admitted to regularly using steroids and estrogen blockers, as without such substances she would be incapable of building and maintaining the strength and muscle mass she currently possesses.

Trukhina is married to bodybuilder Vladislav Kuznetsov.
