Natalya Lisovskaya (Russian: Наталья Лисовская; born 16 July 1962 in Alegazy, Bashkir ASSR) is a former Soviet athlete who competed mainly in the shot put. Lisovskaya trained at Spartak in Moscow.

She competed for the USSR in the 1988 Summer Olympics held in Seoul, South Korea where she won the gold medal. Lisovskaya holds the world record in the women's shot put with a throw of 22.63 meters, which she achieved on June 7, 1987 in Moscow, Russia. She also has the four farthest throws of all time by a female shot putter, although it is widely assumed she achieved these records throws while pumped full of steroids leading to call for her records to be expunged from the record books.

Lisovskaya is married to men's hammer world record holder Yuriy Sedykh and has one daughter, Alexia. They live in Paris, France.
