Weighted men's jackets by Julia Kovalchuk. Julia Kovalchuk for the first time in many years made a short haircut

Physical tests, debilitating diets, alluring temptations and forced weekly weigh-ins... Started in February new season project "Weighted people" at STS. The host of the show, our compatriot Yulia Kovalchuk, frankly said that she also once went on a diet ...

You have been hosting the STS show “Weighted People” for several seasons on how to lose weight correctly. Why were you chosen to host this show? After all, you have always had an ideal figure and, probably, it is difficult for you to understand the problems of heroes.

It seems to me to see in front of you a person who is much slimmer than you, and at the same time asks or even makes you perform physical exercise, pushes you to radically change your usual way of life - this is an excellent incentive to work on yourself. So inviting me to host the show "Weighted People" is an informed decision. By the way, I watched the American version before filming, and to be honest, there are not many television shows, which cling to me, but it made a very strong impression on me. I wondered if it would be possible to recreate the same exciting project in our country and with our participants, while revealing the national mentality. I took the offer to lead the project as a challenge, backed up by sincere interest.

You hosted various TV programs, participated in reality shows. How are "Weighted People" different from past experiences?

This project is important for me, first of all, because I can, at least a little, but change a person's life. It's great to see how unhappy people turn into happy ones! “Weighted people” require daily immersion and evoke completely different emotions in me than entertainment programs. As an experienced reality TV participant, I thought that being directly involved in the show is much more interesting than hosting it. It turned out that managing such a competition is no less exciting: somewhere to tease a falling asleep player, somewhere to encourage with a kind word.

You can already be considered a true expert in the field of weight loss. In your opinion, which methods are the most effective, and which ones are a waste of time?

There was a period in my life when I really resorted to the help of diets. But this was not due to the desire to lose weight. Then I took tests, according to the results of which an individual program was formed for me, which allowed me to normalize the functioning of the body. And it really helped me. But now there are so many diets that only make things worse. That's why main advice: First of all, try to stick to a balanced diet. Each person needs a certain amount of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, but in individual proportions. There is no diet that can suit everyone: after all, someone weighs fifty kilograms, and someone a hundred, someone has a sick stomach, and someone has diabetes. Concerning common moments, try not to overeat at night looking and eat fractionally: every three to four hours. If you stick to these simple rules plus you will start walking or cycling a lot, even such simple tricks will be enough not to gain extra pounds.

According to your observations, how does a person change when he loses excess weight, using the example of the participants in the show “Weighted People”?

I follow the guys and I can say that I feel great pride, for example, for the same finalist of the second season - Yan Samokhvalov, who is now in such a wonderful physical form. Just smart! Yakov Povarenkin also turned into a slender woman, now he is a coach himself. Of course, I rejoice in the success of Timur Bikbulatov, the winner of the second season. He looks amazing, got a job in the gym, and recently became a father for the third time. Of course, not only their appearance, but also in general setting for life: work, relationships with relatives, friends, the opposite sex and, in general, with the outside world. In the third season, by the way, it will be more difficult for our participants, because now they will lose weight and compete in pairs - husbands with wives, children with parents and best friends. Believe us, we have prepared many surprises!

It's no secret that one of the main female fears is to get fat. Admit it, personally you are sometimes tormented by such fear? How do you deal with it?

To be honest with early childhood doing sports: gymnastics, folk dances and jazz modern. Having moved to Moscow, I entered the choreographic faculty. My dancing experience is twenty-five years. If you constantly exercise, it becomes difficult to sit without physical activity even for a couple of days. In addition, I train a lot before performances, and the concerts themselves help burn calories and kilograms. I regularly go to the gym, but I don’t really like fitness, I’m more willing to do exercises for certain muscle groups. I love to swim, which, by the way, is also very useful for people with problematic weight: a person spends two to three times more energy in water than in air, which means that they lose weight faster.

Yulia Kovalchuk's new hairstyle

My new haircut!!! And, it seems, this is not the most insane act, but I think the girls will understand me that sometimes you go to a new one for a very long time ... and then you do it and you don’t regret it !!! Thanks to my Masha for taking care of my hair for 8 years, and only you could I entrust this little sacrament,

Posted by Julia on Instagram. The singer's fans appreciated this beauty transformation with thousands of likes, but expressed the hope that Kovalchuk would not change her hair color after the haircut - it really suits her to be a blonde, despite all the stereotypes.

I've been debunking the blonde stereotype all my life. As a child, I was a little darker, but now my natural color is ash blonde. When you are small, go to school, this stereotype does not stick to you. There is no division that the fair ones are stupid, and the dark ones are smart. There are just stupid and smart ones, regardless of hair color. At school, I didn’t come across this stereotype at all, and when I moved to Moscow, studied at the university, got into the “Brilliant” group, I didn’t even give a reason to think that I was stupid. This image is absolutely not mine, - Kovalchuk told HELLO.RU.
