Katya Gorbacheva aka the Vegan Powerlifter is the 3rd strongest vegan woman on the planet. Katya’s passion is to educate that plants have all the protein you need to get strong and popularizing strength sports among men and women of all ages. She wrote the Vegan Powerlifting Starter Guide to help women obtain confidence through strength training instead of endless diets.

Katya has gotten into powerliftng after college and noticed that eating too much animal protein made her sluggish despite looking lean. Found out why when work offered free blood testing. Cholesterol and triglycerides were borderline risk at 23 y.o.! Katya has decided to give a plant based diet a shot and never looked back. As an environmentalist it only makes sense to be vegan. The ethical argument solidified the commitement to stay cruelty free for life. Now Katya is a mother, raising a vegan baby.

Katya's coaching company, veganpowerlifter.com is a supportive community of aspiring plant-based athletes succeeding in competitive sports and personal wellness goals - be it losing 20 lbs or getting stronger to live longer.

Katya and her clients have been featured on Great Vegan Athletes, Plant Based News, Veganlinked, Duke Alumni Network, No BS Vegans and more Vegan Strong Plant Built team.
