Denis Gusev is a fitness model and bodybuilder from Russia. He is 33 years old and stands 6’1″ tall with a contest weight of 205 pounds, and an off-season weight of 220 pounds. He has 17″ biceps, 32″ waist, 27″ quads, 16″ calves, and 47″ chest. His interest in sports was developed in elementary school when Denis began participating in martial arts, volleyball and basketball, and even dance. At the age of 10, Denis began actively training in track and field at the urging of a local coach. It was from this point on that Denis’ dedication to fitness and athletics began in earnest. He began training seriously as a long jumper and started learning about his body and the science of diet and exercise. While in school, Denis also began showing strong results in competitions, winning the Krasnodar Regional Championship in his age group and making the Krasnodar Regional Team in track and field.
Upon completing high school at 17, Denis Gusev entered Krasnodar’s State University in Physical Education and Sport, which he completed with Honors and received a Bachelor’s Degree in 2002. Denis pursued and received a Master’s Diploma in Physical Education two years later from the same university. In recent years, Denis decided once again to continue his education, and he is currently pursuing a Master’s Diploma in Economics and Statistics on a part-time basis at a prestigious Moscow University.
As a 26-year-old, Denis moved from Krasnodar to Moscow and began to work as a Personal Trainer at the leading fitness chain in Moscow. While working there, Denis continued to raise the level of his training and fitness education, and he soon began receiving requests for modeling assignments and appearances at fitness and fashion shows. Since 2007, Denis participated in numerous assignments as a fitness model and has been photographed by the leading fashion photographers in Russia.
