I can see it as beneficial. Seemingly (and not knowing much about the sport) it’s about balance, leverage, and holding your ground. Good traits to have no matter the position.

Love it .....another way of taking care of his body
Side note......it appears he and CJ have become good friends

SUMO TRAINING​

In sumo, discipline and athleticism are much more important than sheer size! Elite sumo wrestlers are some of the most fit athletes you will find, anywhere. Most top sumo wrestlers train for hours, almost every day, year-round. Here’s an overview of sumo training.

KEY GOALS​

FLEXIBILITY​

The best sumo wrestlers are limber, enabling them to adapt to opponents’ movements. Suppleness also protects from injuries.

BALANCE​

The essence of sumo competition is maintaining balance, and shifting weight, while under pressure.

STRENGTH​

A key focus is to build up tremendous pushing/thrusting strength, which comes from developing complete musculature, throughout the body.

SPEED​

The faster you are off the line, the greater your chances of winning. Reaction speed is critical!

STAMINA​

Although a single match is short, massive energy is exerted in just a few seconds, so hours of daily training build up endurance, to prepare for competition.

STANCE​

Sumo emphasizes a low center of gravity, so all wrestlers work at powerful movements, while knees are bent, and upper body tucked in.

Not so crazy...Too Tall was a boxer and the Manster practiced martial arts.

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

Don't know much about sumo but it appears to be coming out a stance and two steps into with as much force as possible into someone you are trying drive out of the circle to win.

I can see how it could translate.

Mazi should be there.

Dont give Stephen Jones any idea. These guys can be paid with bowls of rice.

 

[SwagSurfer]

This guy is lucky Dak is on his team. Him and CJ are their on a promo run. Not to actually train.

I really can't stand Parsons, and him being on everyone's nut sack is not a good look. He should be buddy-buddy with the QB that completely destroyed his defense and interview him. Yeah, that's a good idea.
