Add Gorilla no Futatsukami to your recovery routine
Summer is a great time to get a workout in. The days are longer, and the heat training gains await. But if you're new to a sport, or if you're trying to get back into a workout routine after a long hiatus, it can often cause soreness and tightness in the legs. Running, training and long hours on your feet can lead to fatigue in the calves and thighs, which can delay recovery. Without a good mobility routine, tension builds up and can eventually leave you with aches and pains. The Gorilla no Futatsukami is a game-changing compression massager designed for both calves and thighs. It uses internal airbags to apply strong, even pressure around the legs. All you need to do is plug in the power cable and press the button to start. There are three intensity levels: low, medium and high. One automatic massage mode is available, and the built-in 10-minute timer turns the unit off automatically. It fits calf sizes from about 37 to 60 cm and thigh sizes from 41 to 60 cm. Available on Rakuten or from the official Doshisha Marche store, Gorilla no Futatsukami is priced at ¥6,900. Source: © Japan Today

Barcelona confirms Japanese tour
Barcelona confirms Japanese tour It's now official. FC Barcelona is heading to Japan, marking the first stop of their summer tour in Asia. The Catalan club will take on Vissel Kobe this Sunday, July 27, after reaching a last-minute agreement with the local promoter. The match, which had been suspended two days ago due to a financial dispute, will go ahead thanks to Rakuten's intervention. The former Blaugrana sponsor covered the five million euros that the Japanese group Yasuda, responsible for organizing the event, was unable to advance. Hansi Flick's men will begin their preparations as soon as they arrive, ahead of two more fixtures scheduled in South Korea against FC Seoul (July 31) and Daegu FC (August 4). Ter Stegen, currently injured, will not be making the trip. Pau Víctor and Oriol Romeu, both set to depart, will also remain in Barcelona. Iñaki Peña is expected to take over in goal.
