Childhood and youth


Elena Gadzhievna Isinbaeva was born on June 3, 1982 in Volgograd. The father of the future athlete, Gadzhi Gafanovich, emigrated from Dagestan and worked as a plumber, mother Natalya Petrovna, Russian by nationality, worked in a boiler room, later became a housewife.

The family lived modestly, although the Isinbayevs supported Elena and her younger sister Inessa in all their endeavors. The mother raised the girls in severity and predicted a sports career for them, since she herself was fond of basketball in childhood and tried to enter the Institute of Physical Education.

At the age of 5, Elena went to a sports school, where she was engaged in rhythmic gymnastics under the guidance of the Lisovs, honored coaches of Russia. In 1989, Isinbayeva entered the engineering and technical lyceum, where she studied 10 classes. The girl studied at the special school of the Olympic reserve and in 2000 entered the Volgograd Academy of Physical Culture without competition.

In 2003, Elena Isinbaeva was called up to serve in the railway troops, and after 2 years the girl received the rank of senior lieutenant, and after 3 more - captain. In 2015, the athlete received the rank of major and signed a contract with the Russian Ministry of Defense, according to which Isinbayeva will conduct briefings at a military school.

Sport


In 1997, Elena Isinbayeva passed the necessary standards and became a master of sports. However, her high growth (174 cm with a weight of 65 kg) prevented her from continuing her studies and career in a gymnast. Lena's coach was watching sports competitions on TV, where pole vaulting athletes performed and thought that this sport would be ideal for his ward.

Isinbayeva already dreamed of a sports career and understood that she had little chance of becoming a famous gymnast, so she agreed to the proposal. She later admits that Alexander Lisovoy's insight influenced her sports biography. As a token of gratitude at the peak of her fame, the champion will present the first mentor with a present - the keys to a new apartment.

Changing the sport at the age of 15 is considered a risky step, but Isinbayeva had the necessary will to start learning from scratch. Honored athletics coach Yevgeny Trofimov became her mentor, for the first time in his career he bailed a girl.

Isinbayeva's first jumps showed that she has almost all the necessary sports training and an innate predisposition to this sport. It took Trofimov only six months to make the young athlete a champion.

In 1998, Elena made her debut at the World Youth Games with a jump of 4 meters, in 1999 the girl again participated in the games and with a result of 4.10 meters won the first gold medal, setting the first record.

In 2000, Isinbayeva again takes gold at the junior games, breaking her own record by 10 cm. When the pole vault discipline was added to the program of the Olympic Games, Elena got a chance to participate in the most prestigious start of the four years. However, during the qualification, the girl did not perform very well and did not make it to the final of the games.

For 3 years, Elena Isinbayeva received many medals among juniors: in 2001 a gold medal at the European Championship and the Berlin International Festival, in 2002 she won silver at the Munich European Championship, losing first place to another Russian woman. In 2003, Isinbayeva set a new world record of 4 m 82 cm.

Isinbayeva improved her results year after year, which increased her popularity and brought in a lot of money: for each new world record, athletes receive $ 50 thousand. Gradual climb allowed Elena to maintain popularity year after year.

In 2005, Isinbayeva broke the previous record by 5 cm, making a jump of 5 meters. Even then, the athlete herself admitted that such a height is more of a training for her, and she is ready for new records, in particular, she dreams of setting 36 world records. At the same time, Isinbayeva decided to change the coach: Vitaly Petrov, the coach of the famous pole vaulter Sergei Bubka, came to replace Trofimov.

Since 2008, Elena moved to live in Monaco, where she also set another record at the stage of the Super Grand Prix series. In August, the athlete again won a convincing victory at the Olympic Games with a jump of 5 m 5 cm.

In 2009, Isinbayeva set two more records at the Pole Stars tournament held in Donetsk, and one at the Golden League in Zurich. But the Berlin World Cup brought the sports star the first offensive defeat; in the final of the competition, Elena did not manage to overcome a single height. In an interview, Isinbayeva said that she was upset by this defeat, and she was extremely embarrassed in front of the coach, whom she had let down.

In April 2010, Elena again suffered a failure, at her performances in Doha, the girl did not even manage to get a bronze medal: her longtime rival Svetlana Feofanova was ahead of her. After this event, Elena Isinbaeva decided to leave the sport for some time.

In 2010, Isinbaeva returned to Volgograd and returned to coach Trofimov. After a year break, the girl took part in the Russian Winter competition, where she won a landslide victory. Further performances of the athlete were quite diverse: she either set new records, or did not receive any prizes at all.

Interestingly, in the competition, the champion usually used three poles with a different color of the winding. For the first warm-up height, Elena chose a pink shade, for the victorious height - blue, and for the third record height - golden. At the performances, the athlete always appeared in a sports swimsuit with the inscription "Russia".

In 2013, the multiple champion again announced that she plans to end her sports career after participating in the World Championships in Athletics in Moscow. This decision was dictated by the decline in the activity of the athlete and the desire to take care of the family and have a child.

Nevertheless, Isinbayeva continued her fitness training and planned to compete at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro at the end of her career. However, 4 years of hard training eventually led to disappointment and frustration.

In view of the doping scandal with the participation of Russian athletes, the IOC decided to exclude the entire Russian national athletics team from the 2016 Olympic Games, in addition to the athletes who tarnished their reputation. The renowned athlete was hard at work preparing for the Rio Olympics, which would be the logical end of Isinbayeva's professional career.

Until the last moment, Elena, who was not involved in the doping scandal, challenged the unfair decision of the IOC, filed lawsuits in various instances, but on July 28 the jumper received a final refusal from the IAAF (International Association of Athletics Federations). A month after this suspension from participation in the Olympics, the champion's career was completed, as she officially announced.

At the end of 2016, Isinbayeva herself headed the supervisory board of RUSADA, a Russian agency that checks athletes for doping. But on the recommendation of WADA, six months later, Elena left this position.

Personal life


Elena Isinbaeva is an open and friendly girl, but she prefers not to advertise her personal life. In 2008, at the Beijing Olympic Games live, Elena Isinbayeva stated:

For the first time, she opened the curtain over her personal life. Artem turned out to be not a famous athlete at all, as numerous journalists had previously assumed, but a DJ. Isinbayeva and Artem met in 2006 during the athlete's training camp in Donetsk. After some time, the couple broke up.

Often in an interview, Elena said that she dreams of a child. In 2014, her dream came true: Isinbayeva had a girl named Eva.

For the sake of the birth of her first child, Elena had to abandon her sports career and go to Monaco because of the too close attention of the Russian press. At the same time, the athlete did not officially change her citizenship, remaining a Russian woman according to her passport. Soon the name of the child's father became known - javelin thrower Nikita Petinov, he became Isinbayeva's husband at the end of 2014.

In 2017, a tragic event happened in Elena's life - the athlete's mother died. The champion posted a farewell photo on her Instagram page.
