The revealing life story of this world champion
Kickboxer Rico Verhoeven is currently in the spotlight. Not only because of his world championship, but also because of the launch of his new app and the biography that Leon Verdonschot wrote about him. PlusOnline spoke to him at the National Health Fair. In this video he talks about his workouts, his nutrition and his new app. He also gives tips on how to motivate yourself to get enough exercise.
The book
Writer Leon Verdonschot (Heart to heart, Everything from Each Other, Fox) followed world kickboxing champion Rico Verhoeven intensively for a year. From his national breakthrough after the fight against Badr Hari to his victory over Jamal Ben Saddik. During training sessions, in preparation for competitions, during presentations and workshops and in his spare time. He not only spoke to Rico himself, but also entered into a conversation with trainers and intimates.
Willpower and discipline
In this book Rico Verhoeven describes his troubled youth for the first time. About the disturbed relationship with his mother and about how the relationship with his father went wrong. It is a story about sporting willpower and discipline, but also a book that reads almost like a novel. About reward in the form of cola, many training hours and videos from Max Verstappen. Verdonschot really fits Rico’s skin and describes his life story in a cinematic and compelling way.
