Trigger point release is a technique that I utilize to address tight and tender areas of a muscle. In this video, I use a Lacrosse ball (hard rubber ball) to apply a comfortable pressure over the chest muscle/pec. Make sure when applying pressure with the ball that it is comfortable and you are not putting pressure over a boney area, and over the soft tissue/muscle.

Start with 2 minutes for 1-2 sets.
