Rugby life of Yusuke Aoki (Suntory Sanghorias) turning back with gear "Vol.2" I can not return unless I return it to the same weight as before practice! "

<From Vol.1 is here>

――Are you particular about anything other than spikes?

Aoki: I do not like fluffy socks. I like petted socks like fibers are already dying.

I feel like I'm wearing spikes with my bare feet, so even though I usually practice, I don't have holes, but I'm wearing worn-out socks.

――Do you like wearing thin socks?

Aoki: Well, I'm wearing something like pissing or thin. 

――Are there any episodes of gear specific to rugby players such as mouthpieces?

Aoki：The mouthpiecenot reallyI did not like it,Since I became a hernia with my neck injured in the fourth year,It began to recognize the importance.

In football etc. I think that there are few people who are mouthpieces, but in rugby they are all on.



--So that's it. In addition to preventing injuries with mouthpieces, meals are especially important in rugby, where contact play is common, isn't it?

Aoki: It is important! Rugby players have to maintain more than we have to increase their weight, but there are some people who are going down and those who are going down.

I'm the type who loses weight, so if you don't eat a lot, you'll lose weight quickly.

――You think the menu you've come up with is being given at the clubhouse cafeteria, right?

Aoki:I agree. There are a lot of side dishes and a lot of vegetables. There are buckwheat noodles for people who can't eat sometimes.

――It's an environment where you can practice on the ground and go to the cafeteria in the facility as soon as you finish.

Aoki: The basic is to take a bath after all practice is done and recover, it is a form to eat immediately. I am thankful for the environment that I can eat immediately.





            
――Can you eat quite a lot? Doesn't everyone seem to have good metabolism?

Aoki: Weigh yourself when you come to practice according to team rules. If you measure again after practice, you will lose weight. I can't return unless I return to the same weight as before exercise. Since there is such a rule, it is a form that everyone aims to eat and go home.

――Are there any tips to return your weight?

Aoki: Even if I eat too much, there is a possibility that the body weight has increased on the next day, so I have to take back my weight while taking the moisture firmly.
   
――So you always keep in mind your weight?

Aoki: Yes, always awesome awareness. Also, before checking out, I have urine checks and I am checking the basics everyday that I am dehydration symptoms now.

      
――What is the first reason to do that check?

Aoki: If you practice while dehydrated, it may lead to muscle injury or muscle injury, so be sure to check it. Even when checking urine, the team sets standards and each individual manages itself. 

--I think you used to have a professional contract when you were active, but please tell us about the rhythm of your daily life.

Aoki: From 0 o'clock in the morning all the professional members gather and weight training starts. After doing weights for about an hour, people practicing personal training or trunk doing it, taking a shower and receiving treatment.

After that, I went back home to have lunch and have another practice. There is a meeting around 14:00 or 15:00, and after that it is a form of overall practice.

――It looks like a two-part training?

Aoki: I usually have 2 copies every day. Everyone has a morning training only once a week, so it will be a little irregular at that time.

――You went to work as a teacher since you became a professional, right?

Aoki: I went to Tokai University.

       
--Is it at night?

Aoki: Not at night, I used to attend as regular students with regular students.

――What was the university schedule like?

Aoki: In the previous term, you went to Tue Mizuki Kin 4 times a week. The second half was only one on Tuesday. It was difficult because there were often 1st, 2nd, and 3rd term in the previous term.
