Álvarez lifted 133 kilos for first place in the clean and jerk and, with the 101 from the snatch, he achieved gold overall with 234. Kuo Hsing-Chun, from Chinese Taipei, took silver, while Maude Charron, from Canada, obtained bronze.

Álvarez was one of the favorites for the title

La Cali responded to favoritism, as it was the main letter of the local delegation to achieve titles.

In 2015, Álvarez tested positive for boldenone in a doping control at the youth Pan American Games, paid the penalty and came back stronger.

In the 2021 World Cup, the Valle del Cauca won the silver medal and began her preparation for the Bogota contest this year in which she won two gold medals.
