Judo is obviously among the more intense contact sports at the Olympic games, being among the few martial arts competitions offered, so it should come as no surprise that warming up for the competition might also be physical.
But a short video of one such warm-up is now going viral and the subject of international headlines and "outrage" - landing the coach in hot water.
The Telegraph describes "
A German judoka has defended her coach after the man brutally shook and slapped her in a pre-competition ritual during the Tokyo Olympics. German Olympian Martyna Trajdos, 32, was filmed marching out to her Judo fight with coach Claudiu Pusa on Tuesday."
