When she finished high school, she determined to go on to study fashion in the University of Colombia. Modeling was only possible on the weekend. Colombians are not awestruck by women who have muscles. She met the fitness trainer on a particular day while going through her routine at the gym. The trainer would alter her life and her perception. Anllela began working out seriously, spending increasing amounts of time at the training. She began to gain substantial muscle mass and in turn that her work as a fashion model was sporadic. Her friends, family as well as other acquaintances started to observe the change in her. They advised her to give up because they were worried that she could end up causing damage to her body. Her passion for fitness was strong, and she had an attainable goal. A year and a half ago, she competed at a fitness event and was ranked third. She was truly shocked as she was not expecting to do that well having just started bodybuilding. Additionally, she was given favorable feedback from respected participants of the bodybuilding industry, as well as judges. At this point, she was forced to choose between being a traditional model for Colombia and becoming the first Colombian fitness model. She thought about how she could be scrutinized should she decide to transform into an exercise model, and considered whether it would be worth taking the risk. She made the decision that it was worthwhile to take the risk of becoming the fitness model of her dreams. Her statement that she made the right decision in life has been repeated many times. Her decision to document her journey from traditional modeling to fitness modelling and beyond was a wise one in the age of technology. She became one of Instagram's most famous personalities rapidly. She used almost every social media platform accessible. She was a user on a Snapchat account, a Snapchat page and a Twitter profile. On 26 September 2014, her debut YouTube video went live on the 24th of February, 2016. The channel is still successful despite her having only posted content on YouTube.
