It seems that the ballerina Anastasia Volochkova has a serious competitor. 46-year-old actress Alena Khmelnitskaya recently demonstrates a great stretch and pleases her subscribers with longitudinal and transverse twine. Such successes the actress managed to achieve with the help of yoga, which she discovered for herself five years ago.
How Alena Khmelnitskaya came to yoga
This was preceded by a difficult period in the life of Alena. In 2010, she gave birth to her second daughter, Ksenia, and two years later she left director Tigran Keosayan, with whom she lived for twenty-one years. These events did not have a positive effect on the figure of the artist. Not only did she gain about twenty extra kilos during pregnancy, but she also began to "seize" the depression caused by divorce. But thanks to the fighting nature, she managed to quickly get herself together and in a short time to bring the figure to an ideal form. Now Alena is shooting in the cinema, touring the world with enterprizes and fifteen times a month goes on stage in the musical "Cinderella". In all the trips she always takes with her a yoga mat and a rope, and every morning the actress starts with a traditional jog.
Sport in the life of an actress
Dense work schedule made certain adjustments to the schedule of trainings for the actress. Yoga she began to study in the group, but due to lack of time now prefers to study at home with a personal trainer. Also in the apartment at Khmelnitskaya there is a running track, the exercises on which Alena used to combine with watching movies. The actress visits the swimming pool and fitness hall several times a week, videotapes about training can be seen in her Instagram. Khmelnitskaya loves active leisure and on vacation prefers extreme sports. She perfectly skates, snowboarding and downhill skiing, perfectly rides, dives with scuba gear and drives a motorcycle. Virtually all the tricks in the famous film "Hearts of Three" she performed independently.
