PAPHOS, Cyprus & BERGISCH GLADBACH, Germany — August 6, 2026
Rehband, a global leader in premium knee sleeves and performance supports, is a sponsor of the first STRONGEST. Female Fitness Festival.
STRONGEST. brings functional fitness, workshops, business networking and empowerment together in one place — a space in which female strength is celebrated in all its forms: physical, mental and professional. The competition side of the festival spans an Elite Individual competition, a Functional Fitness Team Competition across RX, Intermediate and Scaled divisions, and the Strong Woman Cup.
For the festival, Rehband is supplying the competing functional fitness athletes with the teal-and-orange Summer/Retro Edition knee sleeve, and the competing Strongwomen with the Knee Sleeve Power Max 7mm.
Functional fitness and strength competition challenge athletes through a demanding combination of squatting, Olympic lifting, running, jumping, gymnastics and other high-intensity movements. Rehband knee sleeves are anatomically designed to provide a secure fit, joint warmth, compression and consistent support without restricting the movement athletes need during training and competition. The Knee Sleeve Power Max 7mm is the longest and strongest sleeve in Rehband's RX line, built for maximum compression, warmth and stability under heavy loads.
The commitment to STRONGEST. sits alongside Rehband's work elsewhere in functional fitness. Rehband also serves as The Official Knee Sleeve of the World Fitness Project and The Official Knee Sleeve of Monster Games, connecting the brand with athletes and competitions shaping the sport.
Supporting the first edition of STRONGEST. strengthens Rehband's presence in Germany while reinforcing its position as a performance brand trusted by athletes across functional fitness, weightlifting, powerlifting, endurance and team sports.
