This week, we were inspired by John Gunning's recent article in the Japan Times about sumo wrestling and the inability for the wrestlers to rest with the expanded jungyo schedule constantly keeping them on the go. We join in this collective conversation about contact sport injuries and the physical difficulties athletes have with little time to properly heal and rest.

Like, listen and share!
