FAN STORY: Pablo Llopis brings muscle to Mestalla

Bodybuilder Pablo Llopis started his career at 19 years of age, and has achieved plenty of success on the stages thanks to his hard training and the support of supplement supplier Scientiffic Nutrition.

Thanks to his connection with Valencia CF's Official Supplement Partner, Llopis was given a tour of Mestalla recently, and talked about his passion for the club.

"I actually started out in the world of bodybuilding because of an injury when I played football. I tore an ankle ligament and signed up for the gym to help my recovery. I quickly decided to leave football behind and start working out," he told VCF Media.

"I began to find out what bodybuilding was all about, and when I was 19 I decided to compete. Now I'm a professional."

"I was a junior regional champion in Valencia and Spanish champion. Then I placed third in Europe. When I became a senior competitor, I was European champion in 2018 and won various events on a national and international level. This year, in which we've got back on stage, I've taken part in an amateur Mr. Olympia -an international competition- and won the Absolute class."

Of his ties with Valencia CF, he said that "Because of my family and because I'm from here, I've always supported Valencia CF. It comes from my parents. I wanted to be a footballer, just like every kid who likes football.

"I'm very happy with the Scientific Nutrition products. I've been working with them for more than 4 years, and I'm delighted with them. All of their products are of great quality and with the best raw materials," explains Llopis.

"Along with training, nutrition is very important. Any athlete who tries the brand knows that it works very well. The company take care to make sure that they work, that they increase performance and help with recovery. I recommend it to any athlete who consumes supplements."
