Free motion push-pull is a great exercise which primarily works your obliques while you also work your arms, chest, rear deltoids and back.
You will really determine your weak link during this exercise.
Make sure you set the cables to around shoulder level. Stand in the middle of both cables.
The arm you should be pressing with is close to the cable and the arm you are pulling with is away from the free motion.
Your forward leg (pulling) should always be away from the free motion machine.
Keep your core tight, push, pull and twist at your waist keeping your legs slightly bent.
If you fatigue in your arms, maybe they are the weak link? If your obliques fatigue first, maybe you should focus on your core more?
