Meet Julia Vins, a Russian bodybuilder whose love of pumping iron while maintaining her sexy curves has both men and women singing her praises. Vins’ bulging muscles hit a viral jackpot after her photo was featured on the insanely popular Drudge Report.

Vins, 20, has been dubbed “Muscle Barbie” after sculpting her figure and a huge following on social media with adoring fans calling her the “perfect woman,” over her union of beauty and extreme fitness.

The Russian has been powerlifting for the past five years and her Instagram selfies have won praise from both men and women who admire her muscles as well as her curves.

The fitness fanatic always keeps her hair and makeup looking perfect – but she spends even more time on her muscles and can deadlift an amazing 419 pounds (almost 30st). And her distinctive image is proving popular online where she has set up her own website after attracting hundreds of thousands of followers on social media. Julia was 15 when, like millions of teenagers around the world, she started hitting the gym because she lacked confidence. h/t sun

Unlike most girls, Vins decided that cardio exercises alone were not for her so she started powerlifting as well.

“I chose my own path,” she spoke of powerlifting, “My family did not put any obstacles in my way. But many of the people I know were advising me to stop doing it and start looking for a real job.”
