A female bodybuilder dubbed "Kendall Jenner on steroids" says she has the face and muscles and earns five figures a month sharing arm-wrestling videos. Model Vladislava Galagan, 27, began training at the gym 11 years ago - and took to it like a duck to water.
In 2018, she began taking part in bodybuilding competitions - growing her muscles to an impressive level - and she started fitness modelling. Vladislava developed a following on social media - posting training videos and modelling shot - and featured on websites specifically for muscly women.
In 2017, she started a Patreon - posting pictures and videos while flexing her physique. One of the most common comments she receives is telling her she looks just like a shredded Kendall Jenner.
Vladislava said: "When I joined social media, I learnt there are so many men who like tall, strong muscular women with a nice face too. People tell me my muscles are photoshopped because they can't believe someone who looks like me could be so strong.
"I am constantly told I look like 'Kendall Jenner on steroids'. I hit the sweet spot with a mix of my face and my body. But I'm not some vanilla bodybuilder - I'm a fitness model that kicks ass."
Vladislava has adhered to a strict diet and workout routine since she began competing in bodybuilding competitions over a decade ago. She goes to the gym at least six times per week - working out for around an hour and a half each time - and eats a protein-heavy diet.
She eats four meals a day to make sure she eats over 100g of protein - favouring protein-rich foods such as beef, eggs, turkey, chicken and fish. She also takes performance-enhancing drugs to help maximise her efforts - but says there's no "magic pill" and it must be coupled with a consistent diet and training.
She visits the gym six days a week and trains each muscle group twice a week as well as having three cardio sessions a week. In 2016, Vladislava opened an Instagram account and began sharing her gym progress pictures.
She also began doing fitness modelling - and due to her toned physique she fed into a particular "fetish around muscly women". As well as contributing to a platform called 'Her Biceps' - specifically for female bodybuilders - she set up a Patreon for people to subscribe to her exclusive content.
She said: "I'm muscular and good looking, it sells really well. So many people think it's CGI or photoshop, but it's not. I wear see-through lingerie, leather and latex, but I don’t do anything explicit - I just imply.
"I also do arm wrestling videos - people like those." As her subscription platforms and her social media grew, there was one particular recurring comment.
She said she is told daily that she looks like a muscly version of Kendall Jenner.
On TikTok, examples include one user who commented "she's like a buff Kendall.... I'm all for it."
Another commented: "Face of Kendall Jenner, body of Chris Evans [from Captain America]."
She said she receives these comments daily - although she doesn't personally agree. She said: "I don't really know how they see it. I guess there are some similarities.
"It's not how I brand myself, but they like a mix of my face and my body."

Thanks to "hitting the sweet spot" combining looks and physique, she takes home five-figure paychecks each month. She added: "I feel like I won the lottery."
