Living as a Sumo Wrestler for a Day
•
Sumo wrestling, a 2,000-year-old sport, was traditionally used to train soldiers, emphasizing that bigger is better. Sumo wrestlers, known as rikishi, or "powerful men," average a weight of 400 lb, combining muscle and fat for immense strength. To sustain their size, they consume about 20,000 calories daily. Could you handle the life of a sumo wrestler for just one day?
