Katya Elise Henry – The Fitness Megastar
Katya is no ordinary fitness chick, she’s a model, trainer, and entrepreneur with over 6 million followers on Instagram. Henry, through her social media, inspires her fans to follow the fit and healthy lifestyle.
Henry was a cheerleader as a teenager, but she wasn’t happy as she wasn’t building muscle mass due to the cardiovascular nature of the sport and a poor diet. For Katya, fitness began at home as her mother was a personal trainer who started guiding her towards her fitness goals.

Katya got hooked to the fitness lifestyle when she started seeing results in her physique after following a custom diet and training program. She started posting pictures of her transformation on social media for other people to see.

Many people found these photos inspirational and approached Katya for help. Seeing people’s responses, Katya decided to turn into a trainer. Henry further improved her skills as she gained more experience by training her clients.
