| Description: |
- Standing facing the wall with one arm behind your back place the lacrosse ball over the pectoralis minor muscle (runs from ribs 3-5 to coracoid process) and secure the ball between your chest and the wall.
- Increase pressure by pushing more into the wall or completing exercise prone on ground. Decrease pressure by doing the opposite.
- Minimize rolling around too much and instead focus on applying direct pressure but not for too long!
- Do not over do any one area to the point of significant pain or discomfort. Less is more.
- An alternative position is to have the arm overhead with ribs tucked down (thus stretching the pec minor) and then apply direct pressure with the lacrosse ball that is held in your hand.
