San Juan, Puerto Rico.
SPECIES Elite Sponsored Athlete Lorenzo Orozco (San Juan, Puerto Rico) won 1st in the Masters Physique Division (top-5 in the open class) at the IFBB Wings of Strength Puerto Rico Pro Show.
The win was Orozco's first IFBB pro victory.
"This is a very important moment for my career. I wanted to come dialed in and deliver a strong performance, and, I'm happy that the judges rewarded my hard work".
The show was the first IFBB sanctioned pro show in Orozco's native Puerto Rico.
"It means a lot to me to take the stage in my home of Puerto Rico, in front of my friends, family, and long-time supporters. Win or lose, it would have been special. I am very thankful to celebrate a win with the people of Puerto Rico".
The San Juan native has been a SPECIES sponsored athlete since August of 2014.
"As both Lorenzo's friend and employer at Species Nutrition, I couldn't be more proud of his Masters Pro Mens Physique victory. It's a true testament to the age old adage that hard work, dogged determination, and passion for what you do is the true formula for success!", said SPECIES founder and president Dave Palumbo.
Orozco, who earned his pro card at the 2014 North American Championships in Pittsburgh, recently competed at the Pittsburgh Pro and New York Pro.
