Jumabaýewa’s journey in the world of sports began in 2010 when she made the decision to pursue weightlifting. This life-changing choice was influenced by her uncle, Zeriff Kerimbayev, who is a wrestling trainer. Under the guidance of her trainer, Ahmed Sariev, Jumabaýewa honed her skills and developed a strong passion for weightlifting.
In 2018, Jumabaýewa joined the National Institute of Sports and Tourism in Turkmenistan, where she attended the second grade. This provided her with further opportunities to improve her abilities and compete at higher levels.
One of Jumabaýewa’s notable achievements was during the 2017 Asian Championship, where she won the bronze medal. She showcased her strength and talent by lifting a total of 189 kilograms. Her incredible performance in this championship solidified her place as one of the top weightlifters in Asia.

She once again demonstrated her prowess by securing a silver medal with a total weight of 179 kilograms. Additionally, she won bronze in the snatch and silver in the clean and jerk events.
However, Jumabaýewa faced challenges along her journey. In January 2019, doping samples of her fellow athletes, including world champion Sukharoen before Jumabaýewa, revealed the presence of banned substances.
