The "shiko" (leg lift) of Sumo is a very distinctive traditional movement in Sumo. This is the first book to dive deep into the subtleties and benefits of the movement.
Shiko training has been done for over 2,000 years and has helped to develop many strong Sumo competitors. It is not simply a squat or a stretch. Shiko has significant effects that can be obtained without raising your legs high or stomping as hard as you can. Shiko works on deep muscles and connects the whole body. Finally the not so easy to understand method has been revealed in print!
