Early Life & Family

Her alternative name is Julia Mazina/Julia Joska. She was born and raised in Tula City to a Russian family. Her early life, education, parents, and siblings’ details were not found.

She didn’t like herself, but she didn’t realize it. She didn’t understand her feelings toward herself; she didn’t feel like a woman. In her mind, she was some kind of se/x/less creature, far removed from all the feminine trinkets. When she was invited to go somewhere, do you know what she wore? Leggings for the gym and a wider T-shirt or top. She simply never had other clothes; she thought she didn’t need them. She spent a lot of money on sportswear but didn’t buy anything else. In her mind, she looked bad in everything else and simply couldn’t stand herself.

She told her friends that she didn’t need anything because she lived in the gym and never went anywhere else. And that’s how it was. She deliberately locked herself there on all the holidays, and weekends, and even when she had no clients—she still went to the gym. Only there did her reflection in the mirror inspire her, and in general, she felt in her place.

Now, she deeply regrets wasting so much time believing she was somehow different. She could have loved herself, been her friend instead of her enemy, been more confident, seen more, done more, and not doubted herself.

After all, time passed, and she didn’t become better. She didn’t develop perfect facial features, her figure didn’t look like it was ready for Olympia year-round, her legs didn’t lengthen, and her hair didn’t become long and silky. What changed was her attitude toward herself. Only it can change something—it’s where everything starts in the life of absolutely every person.

Husband, Dating & Relationships

She is a married athlete, and social media personality, her husband’s name is Pavel. Her husband is also an athlete, and founder of @evalptea, @ironfamily_, and @iron_within666.

Career

She is a wellness athlete, coach, fitness influencer, and content creator, known for having one of the most stunning physiques in Russia. Reflecting on her past, she remembered the time when she worked as a photographer, from about 19 to 25 years old. Over those six years, many models passed before her—completely different women with varying faces, figures, heights, incomes, and destinies.

She is constantly impressed by her audience’s incredible physiques, which deviate significantly from the typical physique of Russian women in bodybuilding. She could very well be considered the goddess of wellness fitness in Russia. In 2024, she participated in the NPC Worldwide/IFBB Pro Eurasia Championship and the NPC Worldwide Eurasia Championship.

Although she is focused on her coaching work, where she helps various athletes achieve their dream of stepping on stage and even securing their first victory, she still maintains the beauty of her physique. As evident in her videos, her physique is wonderful, and it could be said that she is even bigger, more muscular, and incredibly marvelous.

She and her husband have supported NBC since its very beginning when the organization was just born in the spring of 2019 and held its first tournament.

The first tournament of the season @nbcrus is done, and her team performed exceptionally well. They now boast an absolute champion in the wellness category and a champion of wellness beginners @valeriia.kazakevich.
