Angled Upwards Cactus - shoulder restore class

Hi all, I have recently started implementing this stretch into my week. One of the cues is that the top of the shoulder should touch the floor before rolling into the stretch. 
 

I am having trouble pinning the top of the shoulder to the floor. Should I wedge something in there to start with as I feel like I’m an inch or even two away. 
 

I’m actively pushing the shoulder down before stretching but it doesn’t touch the floor.
 

thanks for your help,

Nick

Hi Nick, you can scale the exercise by moving the elbow a bit lower.  see how it goes.

Thanks man. I’ll try that.
