I am amazed everytime I see huge Sumo wrestlers of Japan. Im amazed on how they built their body the way it is. Lots of fats on every part of their body. They are heavy yet they are fast and agile. I am a fan of Sumo wrestling. The ritual and how the game is being played is really interesting.

The funny thing about it is that they "train" in the United States. What does that have to say about our weight as a society and the food we eat?

Yes I'm amazed! They are so heavy yet so sturdy. So fatty and so overweight yet they have the strength and the vigor to fight through and through. But still I don't like their appearance. I would still prefer the macho looking muscles in the right places. Oh wow!

yea..I've seen a documentary about sumo wrestlers. How they have to eat to grow bigger but yet they eat healthily. And seeing smaller size sumo getting the bigger ones out of he ring. I don't really understand about the sports but it is interesting.

Sumo wrestling is not just pain grappling or throwing one another to the ground. It has a much deeper meaning as seen in the rites before the game is played. They do bulk up by eating special diets but it does not affect their agility at all. The wrestlers themselves have to abide by a code of conduct.
