Meet Eleonora Dobrinina.
Eleonora is a Russian professional athlete under the International Federation of Body Builders (IFBB). She won 1st place in Pro Fitness Model division of the 2012 World Beauty Fitness and Fashion. She also won 1st place Pro Fitness Model in the 2015 IFBB.
Eleonora started her fitness career after her father died. Her father, Viktor Dobrinin, is a well-known wrestler and is considered as one of the most legendary athletes. Her father's powerful and confident character inspired Eleonora to pursue fitness sports.
“He always got what he wanted, and people around him loved him and admired him. That image really parked itself in my memory forever,” said Eleonora.
“I will be like him at his best, and I will do everything I can to make him proud of me. Even if he’s not close,” she added.
Eleonora, who was only 14 when her father left her, decided to go to the gym in order to achieve the athletic body she desired. Inspired by the success of her father, Eleonora started to touch the lives of other people as well.
“Sometimes we don’t realize what we are accomplishing and where we are until suddenly we find we are no longer mere students, but teachers.”
After having a successful career in Russia, Eleonora decided to follow her mother to Canada. Moving to a different country was hard for her because she doesn't speak English and French. She experienced depression. She also got pregnant during this time.
It came to the point that Eleonora's weight doubled. This prompted Eleonora to also double her work and bring back her fit body after her pregnancy.
