Biography & Age
Katya Elise Henry is an American fitness model and personal trainer who was born on the 14th of June 1994 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States. Katya attended and graduated from Desert Mountain High School in Scottsdale, Arizona. While at Desert High, she joined the cheerleading squad and excelled at cheerleading.
In 2013, the young fitness star was keen on building a muscular and curvy body for herself but as a cheerleader, engaging in a lot of cardiovascular exercises, her dream body seemed to be far-fetched. She ate poorly and needed some guidance in building her dream figure. Katya was at a loss at this point but for her mother who is a personal trainer, she sought her advice on the right kind of diet and supplement to take; she was also offered a structured workout schedule. These days, she trains four days a week (Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday) and has Tuesday, Friday and Sunday as her rest days. She often calls herself “the glute master” when it comes to her workouts.
Katya began her fitness journey during her senior year in High School in January 2013. To track her progress daily, she began posting pictures and videos of herself on Instagram. Although back then she had a full-time job being a nanny and could only exercise and post pictures sparingly; however, she managed to make it work, finding time to do the needful.
Her first post was in January 2013; little did she know that her continuous posting of short videos and pictures of her curvy toned body would become a trending social media sensation overnight. Presently, she has over 5 million followers on Instagram, multiple Facebook pages and more than 84k subscribers on Youtube among other social media platforms.
The fitness and Instagram model has partnered with fitness and supplement brand EHPlabs and has starred in Joe Weider’s Olympia Weekend and Body Power Expo. Katya is also a vegetarian and she maintains a strict and healthy diet. She eats more protein and healthy fats, adding Whey protein supplements to help with her muscle building goals. She strongly advises against meal replacement in the place of taking supplements.
Going to the gym is hard for anyone but Kayta recites her popular mantra to remain focused. “Be motivated. Be active. Be confident. Be you”. She believes her mantra will influence everyone to be better.
After having exceeded her ideal body goals, Katya became inspired to train friends and family. Seeing them making progress daily and realizing her posts were motivating more people to work out, she decided to take up personal training as a career choice and even founded a website called ‘Workout by Katya’.
