Loosen shoulder blade muscles

This particular muscle helps rotate our head, essential in maintaining our head position and thus our eyes being focused on the ball. This is crucial if we want to always hit the sweet spot.

Allow your body weight to push into the ball and stop when you reach a perceived tenderness level of 6/10. Hold the position for 10-12 seconds and the tenderness should have reduced. Move to a different area then or you can roll across the muscle as an alternative method.
