Bodybuilder Nataliya Kuznetsova in Two-Piece Workout Gear Says "Push Your Limit"

Nataliya Kuznetsova isn't shy about showcasing her powerful physique and impressive fitness routine on social media. Recently, the bodybuilder shared a video of herself at the leg extension machine, dressed in a white tank top with black accents and black shorts. She captioned the post with a motivational message: "Push your limit." With a mix of heavy lifting and strategic exercises, Kuznetsova maintains her awe-inspiring strength and figure. Here's a breakdown of her favorite fitness moves and their benefits.

In her Instagram video, Kuznetsova is seen at the leg extension machine. According to Asphalt Green, leg extensions have a lot of benefits. "Leg extensions using this exercise machine work your thighs. In fact, that's basically the only thing that they work. That's great if you want to build strength and mass quickly. To get started, slide into a sitting position on the machine from the open side."

Kuznetsova likes to do hamstring curls to keep herself in shape. She shared this video on Instagram of herself doing them, captioning it, "Gym time." Asphalt Green states that doing hamstring curls has a lot of benefits. "Hamstring curls are a great way to balance the muscles that you work when you're doing leg extensions. This exercise is also good for people with sedentary jobs who don't get a lot of walking in. Even pro cyclists can benefit from using this machine, since biking works the quads so heavily and doesn't do as much for the hamstrings."

Kuznetsova likes to hike to keep herself in shape. She shared this photo on Instagram of herself on a mountain. Kuznetsova captioned it, "When people say they don't take life too seriously, is that a good thing?)"

Kuznetsova shared this video on Instagram of herself doing lateral pulldowns. Piedmont states that this exercise has a lot of benefits. "The lat pulldown is a fantastic exercise for strengthening the latissimus dorsi muscle, the broadest muscle in your back. This muscle promotes good posture and spinal stability. Form is crucial when performing a lat pulldown to prevent injury and reap the best results."

Since she's a bodybuilder, Kuznetsova naturally lifts a lot of weights. She included a photo of herself lifting a barbell in this Instagram post. ACE Fitness states that lifting weights has a lot of benefits. "Lifting heavy weights elevates levels of anabolic hormones—specifically testosterone, growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1)—which are used to repair muscle fibers damaged during exercise. This helps the muscle fibers to become thicker and capable of generating higher levels of force."
