Проверте пожалуйста срочно Текст:Sumo is a traditional Japanese style of wrestling. It appeared in Japan very long ago.

Only men usually can take part in the competitions. Sportsmen who want to compete in sumo are called rikishi.

Sumo keeps a lot of ancient traditions, it's got many ritual elements.

Rikishi gain weight as a natural part of training. They eat up to 7,000 calories per day! Professional players usually reach 150–200 kg. Extra weight can't make you a champion though, as people become slower and weaker. Many sumo wrestlers are known to be quite unhealthy.
