An Ukraina, Inna Vladimirskaya, engages in an unusual ritual which she claims helps her to stay healthy and young.

The 32 year old lady swims in one of the coldest rivers in Europe and workout each weekend in freezing temperatures of -9C.

Mrs. Vladimirskaya, strips off at the Dnieper river, in Kiev, Ukraine every Sunday morning, and takes a swim after jogging naked along the snowy banks of the river.

Inna naked photos were captured on camera by Czech photographer, David Tesinsky, who  reportedly heard of her unusual weekend ritual that has been on for nine years from the environ. As she is accompanied by her husband while carrying out the ritual.

Speaking to DailyMail, she said: "Every week I take a run in the snow and then plunge into the water. Immersion in cold water makes the blood rush to the internal organs, activating their circulation, which helps break down fat and improve muscle tone. It also helps beat muscle and joint pain and rejuvenates my skin, because of the increase in oxygen supply to it. Using seahorse as an example, which looks much younger than its actual age, because it spends so much time in cold water. Humans can reap the same benefits if they are prepared to put the hard work in. I just make sure I don't stay in the water too long, and as soon as I am out I dry myself and go straight to my warm car.”
