Performance is central, and as the level rises, details become decisive. What initially feels like a lack of strength often turns out to be a matter of control. Grip plays a bigger role than expected; this is where the real gains are to be made.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In other sports, gear has been taken seriously for years. In Hyrox, that had not yet happened. The best athletes in the Netherlands trained and performed wearing work gloves, equipment that was never designed for this sport.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In that quest for perfection, it soon became apparent that existing gear did not fully meet the demands of the sport. Every option entailed its own compromise, and a true alternative simply did not yet exist.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-6\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner vc_custom_1785591363215\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><figure class=\"vcex-image vcex-module\"><div class=\"vcex-image-inner wpex-relative wpex-inline-block\"><img width=\"1188\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/proofperformance.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/hyrox-handschoen-erben-wennemars-nicky-verhoeven-handshake-proof.jpg\" class=\"vcex-image-img wpex-align-middle\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/proofperformance.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/hyrox-handschoen-erben-wennemars-nicky-verhoeven-handshake-proof.jpg 1188w, https:\/\/proofperformance.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/hyrox-handschoen-erben-wennemars-nicky-verhoeven-handshake-proof-300x253.jpg 300w, https:\/\/proofperformance.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/hyrox-handschoen-erben-wennemars-nicky-verhoeven-handshake-proof-1024x862.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/proofperformance.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/hyrox-handschoen-erben-wennemars-nicky-verhoeven-handshake-proof-768x646.jpg 768w, https:\/\/proofperformance.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/hyrox-handschoen-erben-wennemars-nicky-verhoeven-handshake-proof-600x505.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1188px) 100vw, 1188px\" \/><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid mobile-reverse vc_custom_1786648294413 wpex-relative wpex-vc_row-pt-lg\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-6 wpex-has-overlay wpex-has-overlay--6ad0e9b61ad9d wpex-relative\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpex-bg-overlay-wrap wpex-absolute wpex-inset-0 wpex-rounded-inherit\"><style class=\"wpex-bg-overlay-css\">.wpex-has-overlay--6ad0e9b61ad9d > .vc_column-inner > .wpex-bg-overlay-wrap .wpex-bg-overlay{background:linear-gradient(90deg, #1a1c20 34%, transparent 61%);opacity:100%;}<\/style><span class=\"wpex-bg-overlay dark wpex-absolute wpex-inset-0 wpex-rounded-inherit wpex-duration-500 wpex-opacity-60 wpex-bg-black\"><\/span><\/div><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><figure class=\"vcex-image vcex-module\"><div class=\"vcex-image-inner wpex-relative wpex-inline-block\"><img width=\"886\" height=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/proofperformance.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/justin_fokkert_proof.jpg\" class=\"vcex-image-img wpex-align-middle\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/proofperformance.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/justin_fokkert_proof.jpg 886w, https:\/\/proofperformance.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/justin_fokkert_proof-222x300.jpg 222w, https:\/\/proofperformance.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/justin_fokkert_proof-756x1024.jpg 756w, https:\/\/proofperformance.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/justin_fokkert_proof-768x1040.jpg 768w, https:\/\/proofperformance.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/justin_fokkert_proof-600x813.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 886px) 100vw, 886px\" \/><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-6\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner vc_custom_1785591363215\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I am Justin Fokkert, a Business Administration student at the University of Groningen, and I come from the racing world myself. Until I was fifteen, I raced motorcycles at a high level, and even now I have close ties to elite sport. In 2023, shortly after ending my motorcycle racing career, I first came into contact with Hyrox. I immediately recognized that same sharpness of detail that makes the difference in the racing world, but I hadn&#039;t seen this reflected anywhere else in the gear they were using.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Driven by the needs of top-level athletes, I decided to create something that did not yet exist. More than a year of development, testing, and refinement followed, in close collaboration with the best HYROX athletes in the Netherlands. Every detail was re-examined, improved, and perfected.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The result is the Proof \u2013 G01 Hyrox Glove. A product without compromise, specifically designed for the demands of Hyrox. Designed for athletes who really want to get the most out of their HYROX performance.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"AboutAbout\"Grip maakt het verschil, niet je kracht\" Hyrox is de snelst groeiende fitnesscompetitie ter wereld.
