When the question arises about the best female workouts, the imagination immediately draws aerobics and exercises with dumbbells. But for some reason few representatives of the fair sex pay attention to powerlifting, although just this kind of sport can bring a female figure and health much more benefit. Translated from English, powerlifting is “strength” and “uplift”. To work with weights, you need to be strong, and for this you need to train. On the other hand, if you train and lift weights, you will become strong and fit as a teacher and instructor of Chelyabinsk fitness trainers. Glushko Anna Pavlovna is the strongest woman in Russia. Powerlifting, working with heavy weights and the gym, judging by her figure, did not make her a masculine hulk, which the girls are so unreasonably afraid of. On the contrary, Anna is cheerful, charming, beautiful and unusually happy.
Titled Strongwoman
Men all over the Earth can long and stubbornly prove that women are the weaker sex. Only they are unlikely to be able to convince the resident of the Urals, the incredible Anna Glushko.
Anna is not just “The Strongest Woman in Russia”. She twice excelled at the world championships in powerlifting, is the Russian champion in power extreme sports and the owner of an unusual record in Russia with the movement of seven jeeps. At first glance, the Chelyabinsk strongwoman is a very ordinary woman. Only this lady’s character is iron, and the physical strength is enormous. This is noted in many competitions, including the Saratov ones. It was there that several years ago, a pretty slender girl with an ideal figure (height - 172, weight - 65), set an unusual record. Prior to this, the “strongwomen” was already distinguished by the superiority of power over the stronger sex: it lifted blocks as weightless, and moved heavy-tonnage trucks, and lifted young children in one hand in the palm of its hand and much more.
Incredible trick
In mid-November 2012, the Ural athlete arrived in Saratov to set a new record in power extreme. And she did it. Spectators of an incredible stunt remember how seven jeeps stood in a single bundle right in the middle of Kirov Avenue, how Anna did a light warm-up and then, clothed in belts, dragged this 14-ton “steam locomotive” out of cars. She was the first of the women to decide on this.
“The strongest woman in Russia” Anna Glushko admitted later that she had never felt better than after this victory and thanked the fans very much. According to her, she was most afraid of any failure in this heavy extreme.
