Aleksey Lesukov, sometimes nicknamed Lesha, is an 18 year old Russian bodybuilder whose sudden popularity flash-flooded across the internet around August 2006, leaving a trail of dropped jaws and blown minds in its wake. It's not hard to see why.
Earlier that year, he stormed onto the local Russian stage with a physique outclassing most grown men and rivaling many pros with years of work and experience - not just with his sheer size, but the balance of that mass to the shape, symmetry, proportion, and definition of somebody who's spent years and years bringing up weak points in all these traits. Even with his current success in recent competitions, his physique could easily be called "old-school" or "late-70's" - a thick, chiseled and striated torso atop massive legs that are a tad smooth. Top it off with a handsome youthful face that wouldn't look a day over 14 by itself, and he presents a threatening combination that would be hard to beat in any contest.
He has been constantly compared to many of the best-known classic and modern young-adult physiques whose popularity was born from so closely matching the majority opinion of "near perfection"; a young Arnold Schwarzenegger, teenaged Casey Viator, Russia's most promising teen since Alexander Federov, and most recently, the Russian equivalent of Britain's James "Flex" Lewis.
All that without the symptoms of drug use that plague most high level bodybuilders of his musculature these days; no acne, no gyno, no excessive vascularity, no overly sharp facial features, no disdented waist that looks like it's housing a pumpkin.
Despite all the talk, very little is known about him. While the primary purpose of this profile is to bolster his popularity, support and recognition in the worldwide bodybuilding community, it is also to provide a resource of available information regarding his bodybuilding endeavors. After all, it seems odd that somebody this phenomenal would be so obscure. All we are currently aware of is his name, age, some photo selection from his recent shows, and a single news article from a Russian newspaper (translation now posted into a blog). If anybody has any more information or suggestions to share for this profile, please feel free to send a message.
All friend requests are accepted - keep yourself updated with any announcements, and help spread Aleksey's popularity! Disabling comments had been considered, but, as was discovered, is not an option. Thus, comments/encouragement for Aleksey are welcome! But again, this is a fanclub profile, so there is no guarantee that 1) he will see them 2) he will be able to translate them if he does see them. Furthermore, comments (other than a general "Thanks For The Add" image for new friends) will not be posted from this account to friend's public profiles in order to avoid people thinking they are coming from Aleksey himself.
All in all, Aleksey Lesukov is no doubt one of the top teen bodybuilders of this decade, if not all time. He has obviously put a tremendous amount of dedication into his diet and training, and it's paid off bigtime. He will definitely be someone to watch in the upcoming years, and we wish him the best in his endeavors.
