Fabiana Sevillano: "Now I'm healthier than ever. When you start to put out muscle, to like you and to see you in shape there is no turning back"

Fabiana Sevillano, a Spanish content creator with millions of followers on platforms such as TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, has been preparing intensively for her upcoming boxing match at Ibai Llanos’s “La Velada del Año” event in Seville. Scheduled for July 25, the event will see her face off against Colombian content creator La Parce in a highly anticipated showdown dubbed “Sevilla versus Medellín.” Sevillano, who was born in Los Palacios y Villafranca, Seville, on January 8, 2002, has spoken openly about how this experience has transformed her physical health and lifestyle. The event marks a major shift in Sevillano’s life, as she has committed herself fully to rigorous training since being confirmed in February that she would participate. Her preparation includes daily workouts, with four hours each on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, and two hours on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Fridays vary depending on commitments, but she maintains consistent training under the guidance of professional trainers. She has adjusted her schedule significantly, reducing work with brands and missing some personal events to focus entirely on her fitness and combat readiness. Sevillano emphasized that this journey has changed her habits permanently. “I’ve always wanted to be physically strong,” she said during an interview. “But I struggled to maintain a stable routine or prioritize it until now. This opportunity forced me to commit.” She described the process as challenging yet rewarding, noting that she feels healthier than ever before. “When you start building muscle, enjoying it, and seeing yourself in shape, there’s no turning back,” she added. Her approach to body image and fitness has been shaped by her awareness of social media influence. With over two million followers on TikTok and more than one million on Instagram, she recognizes the responsibility that comes with her platform. “I try not to discuss topics like diet or physique because I’m not an expert,” she explained. “What I say could affect someone younger who might take it as absolute truth.” She often shares photos showing variations in her appearance throughout the day, highlighting how lighting and angles can distort perceptions online. Despite the intense training regimen, Sevillano acknowledges that maintaining this level of commitment post-event will be difficult. “At this level, I won’t return to training,” she stated. “It’s unsustainable unless you’re a professional. I’m working alongside athletes heading to the Olympics or dedicated to sports.” Her training sessions include a mix of strength, agility, and cardiovascular exercises. Mondays and Fridays are particularly demanding, starting with warm-ups and mobility drills followed by abdominal exercises, shadowboxing, and techniques to improve torso movement and evasion skills. These sessions culminate in high-intensity cardio circuits designed to build endurance and stamina. As the date of the event approaches, Sevillano admits to feeling nervous, though she manages it through routine. “In the morning, I don’t feel anxious,” she said. “But as night falls, I find myself counting down the days. I never thought I’d get this kind of nerves.” Despite the pressure, she remains focused on the positive changes this experience has brought into her life. She has also launched a line of merchandise to support her participation in the event, which sold out within an hour of release. This further underscores her growing influence and the anticipation surrounding her performance in the ring. As she prepares for the fight, her message is clear: the journey toward physical transformation and self-improvement has become irreversible.
