In a recent clip, the mum showed off heras she wore a cut-out black .
Flexing her muscles, she wrote: “I’m the nicest person you’ll ever meet… but… if you’re mean, be prepared… I’m meaner.”
But it seemed that viewers didn’t heed her warning as they were quick to share their thoughts in the comments.
One person wrote: “What the hell is that?”
Another commented: “Why would anyone do this to their body?”
“I wouldn’t call you pretty, a mess more like,” penned a third.
But it seems the mum knows how to hit back at the trolls, as she responded to one mean comment with a video.
The comment read: “Those hard implants are so encapsulated they look terrible. Time to change them.”
The bodybuilder wasn’t going to let the bully win and hit back: “They’re actually quite squishy like regular boobies.
“See, they’re not encapsulated at all. They feel great. People think they’re really hard, but it’s because I wear tight tops sometimes. I really smash those suckers in.
“But I’m gonna assume you know more about maybe than I do. Maybe you have some inside knowledge.”
Despite the negative comments, the ‘Muscle Mum’ was proud of her looks and showed a before and after of her weight lifting journey.
In the first image, Kristina looked like your typical mum.
She wrote: “Mum transformation incoming.
Why you should do weight training when you get older?
As we age, maintaining physical fitness becomes increasingly crucial, and weight training plays a pivotal role in promoting overall health and well-being. One of the primary benefits of weight training for older adults is the preservation and enhancement of muscle mass. Sarcopenia, the age-related loss of muscle mass and strength, is a common issue that can lead to decreased mobility, increased risk of falls, and a general decline in physical function. Engaging in regular weight training helps to counteract these effects by stimulating muscle growth and improving muscular strength, thereby enhancing an individual’s ability to perform daily activities with greater ease and independence.
In addition to its impact on muscle mass, weight training also significantly contributes to bone health. Osteoporosis, characterized by weakened and brittle bones, is another prevalent concern among older adults. Weight-bearing exercises, such as lifting weights, promote bone density by applying stress to the bones, which in turn stimulates the production of new bone tissue. This can help reduce the risk of fractures and other bone-related injuries, fostering a more active and injury-free lifestyle.
Weight training also offers substantial metabolic benefits, which are especially important as metabolism tends to slow down with age. By increasing muscle mass, weight training boosts the resting metabolic rate, meaning the body burns more calories even at rest. This can aid in weight management and reduce the risk of metabolic disorders such as type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Furthermore, weight training has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity, enhance lipid profiles, and reduce inflammation, all of which contribute to a healthier metabolic state.
“I was broke, then built myself up.
“I only hope to help others know to get up and build, especially mums! You can do it.”
While there were trolls in the comments, Kristina also has an army of 256,000 supporters inspired by her strength.
Meanwhile a fourth said: “I think you look unique and quite fabulous.”
“A baddie,” claimed a fifth.
Someone else added: “Wish I had your discipline!”
