Biography
Building Bakhar’s Legs
Bakhar started training after she experienced a lot of unwanted attention from her classmates, they would pick on her saying that she had skinny legs. This is when Bakhar joined a gym and without any training knowledge or previous experience, she hit the gym hard.
In the beginning, Bakhar didn’t count sets or reps, she only did what felt natural and worked on the areas she wanted to grow, she had no real idea how to create a correct exercise routine.
Bakhar started to read bodybuilding magazines and started to learn how to work her muscles correctly, and then, one day, she woke up she saw developed muscles. This was the turning point for Bakhar.
Bikini Competitor
Bakhar Nabieva has no future plans to compete professionally, although she’s competed in bikini fitness categories. She feels in order to compete, the diets are too strict with little energy foods such as carbohydrates and the training is intense in carb depleted states. For Bakhar, this is not her idea of fun.
“Currently I have no interest in competing, I have been competing in the category bikini fitness, but really have no interest. You have to be a very restricted diet, no carbohydrates, the training does not yield when you have no energy. I do not want to expose myself to such torture, perhaps in the future.”
“I woke up and looked in the mirror and I saw some muscles, once I saw the result of developing muscles nothing could stop me.”
Training
Bakhar’s training is tough but quite simple, she focuses on the muscle groups she likes the most (her hamstrings, glutes, and quads). The main exercises she will use are squats, leg press, leg extension, with a lot of isolation for the hamstrings, which has given her well-rounded legs she always desired.
“I work with weights using 6-10 and 15 repetitions maximum. I love to train legs, of course !! The exercises that are more like squats, leg press, leg extension and lats.”
“I really do not like dieting! I like virtually everything”
Nutrition
Not a huge fan of dieting, Bakhar’s diet is varied, she likes to eat meat, eggs, and cakes. But she will use this to fuel her workouts effectively. Eating around the workouts with higher calories will prevent her from any unwanted fat storage and makes sure she has a good workout with great results.
