Shoulder rotator smash and floss

 
Lying on your back, place the ball in the muscles right where your arm joins your body, near your armpit. 
 
Bend your arm at a 90-degree angle and rotate it towards the ground, palm first as far as you can. 
 
Now rotate the other way with your palm toward the ceiling as far as you can.  To increase the pressure you can roll over onto your side.  Contract and relax the tissues using the other arm to resist the motion or simply smash and floss this tissue into the ball.  Breathe. 
 
Spend 1-2 minutes here.  Repeat on the other side.
