On July 16, 2019, reality TV star Anfisa Nava posted a photo on Instagram showing off her impressive physique, which she achieved through rigorous workouts and a tightened diet in preparation for her first NPC bikini division.
However, her achievement was met with criticism from some who claimed that her muscles made her look 'manly.' But Anfisa clapped back with a body-positive caption, saying, "They say 'Muscles make you look manly'... I personally have never felt more feminine and happy than I do now."
She emphasized the importance of self-love and acceptance, stating, "It's all about how you feel on the inside and not what you look like on the outside. All shapes and sizes can be beautiful as long as you live in harmony with yourself."
Many of Anfisa's fans came to her defense, praising her for speaking out against body shaming and promoting positivity. One fan wrote, "continue to killl it girl! You are killing the game, love to see positivity in a world so critical and negative."
With her recent body positive post, Anfisa has shown that she is a true role model, inspiring others to love and accept themselves for who they are.
