In elite sport, everything revolves around performing at the right moment, in the right form, at the right place, and sometimes even in a different time zone. At those times, a well-functioning biorhythm is essential. A disrupted sleep–wake rhythm can make the difference between victory and defeat.
The PROPEAQ light glasses help athletes optimise their biological clock through precisely controlled light therapy. By applying the right light at the right time, athletes can manage their energy levels, sleep better, and recover faster.
For years, PROPEAQ works closely with elite athletes from a wide range of disciplines, from swimmers and cyclists to footballers, racing drivers, and hockey players, providing active guidance in achieving top-level performance.
By optimising their circadian rhythm, these athletes have been able to perform better, recover more efficiently, and get the most out of their training and competitions.
Light is the silent force behind peak performance.
With the help of a custom-made swimming goggles with blue light technology from PROPEAQ, Maarten van der Weijden broke a world swimming record in 2019. In just 24 hours, he swam an incredible 102.8 kilometres.
Cycling record
Professional cyclist Victor Campenaerts broke the world hour cycling record in Mexico in 2019 with the help of the PROPEAQ light therapy glasses. In one hour, he covered an impressive 55.089 kilometres.

Chrono Coaching helps you adjust your biological clock to align with your training and competition schedules — and even to different time zones for international events. This scientifically proven method is highly effective, but requires a personalised coaching plan tailored to your needs.
