Hi, Cathe!
I have hyperextensive elbows that don't lock out until about 30 degrees past straight. (Yep, looks about as freaky as it sounds.) I know that during weight training and boxing-type moves, I should not lock my elbows out. I do find, however, that I tend to straighten my arms fully. Is this ok, given that my range of motion is greater than most people's and "straight" is not "locked out" for me? Or should I try to keep them less than fully straight? (I haven't experienced any problems with what I'm doing.)
Hope everything is going well with your new little one!
Thanks,
Audrey
