90 Day Fiancé: Anfisa Arkhipchenko Fitness Journey In Pictures (2024)

Iconic 90 Day Fiancé cast member Anfisa Arkhipchenko’s fitness journey through her before and after photos is truly inspiring. Anfisa became a loathed yet beloved star of the TLC franchise after her90 Day Fiancé season 4 debut, with her now ex-husband, Jorge Nava. When Anfisa moved from Russia to the U.S., she brought many chaotic moments along with her, which definitely kept fans entertained. Over time, Anfisa has become popular on Instagram, which has become her primary source of income. It’s not just plastic surgery or her red makeup bag that helped her to transform. Anfisa has focused on her weight loss and career which inspires her fans.

Anfisa looks very different now when compared to the way she looked on 90 Day Fiancé, during her never-ending fights with Jorge. She quit the show in 2018 and has since been working on her full body makeover, while also showing her true (i.e. fun) personality to her fans. Jorge and Anfisa last appeared together on 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?However, after Jorge was arrested in February 2018 in Arizona, because the police found 293 pounds of high-grade marijuana in his car, Anfisa’s life turned upside down, and that was perhaps for the best.

That following September, Jorge was sentenced to two and a half years in prison for possession of drugs with the intent to sell. In December 2018, Anfisa used Instagram to announce that her newly toned figure and weight loss transformation were the results of bodybuilding. Anfisa’s new strength training hobby filled the void that she felt after Jorge was arrested and she was left on her own. She decided to stay busy doing what she enjoyed the most, which was working out.
