This was the anthem for all of us who didn't fit in. Those who were bullied. Whose faces were "ravaged" with acne. Those picked last for anything. Those never invited to a party or a dance. Those who sat alone at lunch. Those whose high school experience was hell. The ones who just managed to avoid suicide.
Joe Grills see the problem with that is that this was released in 2004, and tochinoshin didn’t even start his pro sumo career until 2006, so that doesn’t make any sense here.
Joe Grills I mean you did say that you wish they would’ve measured him instead of these guys, so naturally that’s why I corrected it lol But it would be nice if they measured that guy for his LBM and muscle activity. Tho he has been injured recently so that may be a bit tough because of those injuries
Same tbh I’ve been analyzing their training and incorporated some of it into my normal training. Their shiko and low attack stance is beautifully painful for the legs. After these workouts my legs are easily weak from the strain.
I've never seen one with a beard, but occasionally they have sideburns. Chiyotairyu, in the top division has them. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZOVRqLINrXs.html
I believe this research to a certain point, they are fat and they do have high blood pressure, cholesterol, pre-diabetic and diabetic. There knee is often injured because of all the weight they carry, like all other humans they do have problems with insulin (insulin resistance), hearts problems you name it. When they are young it does not affect them so much but once they are near 30 years old and over it becomes a health issue. Statistically Sumo wrestler don't live that old, 60% died before the age of 60; only 3 Yokozuna to my knowledge lived to the ripe old age of 80. Si the glory of the sport is under 30 after that quit because health issue will become your life's problem.
Mostly because they need to slowly change their eating habits and general lifestyle. To go from the very active and high calorie sumo experience and change it to the average person’s daily exercise and eating is a big shock to the body
