Sumo in competition is pvssy sh!t, but it's honestly the best exercise. Period.

Works all the same muscles as a deadlift, except the sumo stance allows you to incorporate more hip/glutes, which will help lower back pain, AND has much less risk of destroying your lower back.

They eat clean foods.

Meats, seafoods, vegetables, white rice, Japanese noodles. And their training if very physically demanding

It’s not like they got fat by eating donuts and potato chips and by being couch potatoes.

A fat and healthy rikishi (sumo wrestler) would embarrass most bodybuilders in a shoot fight. Tossing them around and dropping them with ease I’d bet.

Deadlifts are the most overrated exercise by far.

Yeah but the rules should specify whether you're doing conventional or sumo imo

Some can really take advantage of sumo.

Gotta say it’s retarded seeing a 220lb man sumo deadlift 1000lbs on a whippy bar with a 2 inch actual ROM.
