Biography
Sports career is a capricious thing, and plan a long professional biography in sports - the case is ungrateful. To keep combat capability throughout the four Olympic cycles, few people are under power, but those whom this task turns out to be on the shoulder, can boast not only talent and successfulness, but also an iron character.

Anastasia Zueva (such a maiden name of the athlete) was born on May 8, 1990 in the Voskresensk near Moscow. She grew up a good and obedient girl with which there were no problems. In addition to excellent studies at school, Nastya pleased parents with sporting successes.
Zueyeva went swimming, because, in addition to hockey, it turned out to be the only section available in the city. True, there were still dancing in the local DC, and Anastasia did not miss the opportunity to try himself on stage. Despite the fact that the rulk girl has always been put in the last row, she gladly danced, dressed in Kokoshnikov and bright folk costumes.
As a child, the feature of Nastya, following the example of Pope dreamed of becoming a truck driver, and then - a coach or physical education teacher. However, sporting success soon pushed his studies into the background. After grade 9, Zueva was in the School of the Olympic Reserve, where workouts came to first place.
From the age of 15, Anastasia lived and was swimming in Penza, where her mentor was the Honored coach of Russia Natalia Kozlova. So the girl who at first attended the pool is not very willingly, approached the path of great sport. She turned out to be flexible, moving and hardy, and remained only to decide on the discipline, where Zueva had hip their skills. She was swimming on his back.
Swimming

Olympiad in London 2012, where Anastasia was driving with ambitious plans, did not immediately be set. The corona distance of 100 meters on the back of the Russian woman again overcame with the offensive fourth result, and therefore the next start went out without special hopes.
