        Side crunches. Go on the lower back crunch machine and lay on your side, then do a sit up.

          Please explain how the muscle that pulls your scapular forward will lift your thorax laterally.

    It's called the boxer's muscle for a reason. Exercises that move your shoulders forward. E.g. landmine presses, with a slight upward angle and really push your shoulders forward at the top of the movement.
    You can also use an incline chest press machine, extend and lock your arms and just push your shoulders forward.

    Maybe do the opposite of a shrug while on rings/ parallel bars.
    I remember when I started working on a plannche it got sore a few times but it was because it was a novel stimulus I guess.

    You don't have to isolate everything for it to grow. In my opinion dips and chin ups (posterior portion) "work" it the best but it should grow with any normal lifting routine regardless.

    Why waste time isolating such a small muscle? Just hit it in a compound like OHP

        He’s still right though. Pullovers are what most of the golden era guys did for their serratus. I personally think decline pullovers are a lot better than flat bench, keeps the tension on the lats through a longer range of motion

    dumbbell OHP hits them the hardest for me. I put the back of my seat at a slight incline and raise my chest.

    You can't isolate it but the best exercises are anything involving overhead or incline presses.
