No way!
This exercise has nothing but future injuries waiting to happen. You say it works multiple muscles, but that doesn-t mean there-s a benefit to those other muscles for growth, significant adaptations, and of course not enough load to cause a stimulus.
Zero benefits! There-s way to much risk than reward for this exercise. In fact why would any who wants to target their obliques incorporate larger muscles groups?
What you-re prescribing, negates a pure stimulus for the obliques.
A person who wants to target their obliques should perform an exercise specifically for the obliques, or choose an exercise than can target the obliques with isolation.
This exercise is far from isolating the obliques.
The complete lack of stability that comes with this exercise alone is extremely detrimental.
I see in the comments many individuals seem to believe this is a safe, and great exercise, when in fact it-s not.
You should reevaluate this.

What-s your reasoning for having the wrist directly under the shoulder? Why is this position more stable and/or safer for the shoulder? I actually feel more pushing power and stability if my wrist is set slightly forward of my shoulder. This position also is a bit less intense for the wrist in extension. Curious about your thoughts. Thanks!

occasionaly I visit athlean x and I have banned vshred because I don't want that kind of muscle at this point in life. Alex and his partner are wonderful and I should have started it in my twenties instead of my 60's. RS is also putting me through the ringer and avoiding this movement was my shortcoming. Getting my balance is tricky.

I-ve had some injuries that make doing some ab exercises difficult for me, this looks like an exercise that I can do and not have to deal with the pain I run into from old injuries. Thank you and keep making the videos, they are extremely informative.

So I am using a chair pushed up against a solide surface and extending my leg as far as possible AND going slow and progressing until balance is good. Thanks for your feedback. My actual goal is a combo of oblique and serratus.

II-m definitely going to try this one. You do a great job demonstrating. Would like a little more clarity on which muscles you are referring to as I-m not as familiar with anatomy. Keep -em coming.
