Sumo fitness

Anyone believing a sumo fighter is just a big (as in fat) bloke, may think again. These wrestlers are extremely fast for their size, very flexible, and super strong. And yes, they do eat a lot...

Why not get a glimpse of what they're up to? There's allegedly a new sumo exercise DVD out.

Story:
It probably wasn't what Jane Fonda had in mind when she pioneered the home workout craze: fitness advice from grossly overweight men whose training regime includes taking a nap after a huge lunch.

But in their latest effort to fight the flab, overweight Japanese are turning to the behemoths of the sumo ring, who have released a DVD of simple exercises they claim keep them supple and, yes, fit.
