Am I being an overly cautious freak or is hopping up and down with locked knees while holding a weight not a great idea? Sure she’s young, but won’t that come back to haunt her?

I had the same thought AM.

LIkely it is safe for the ultra fit, like these high performance girls.

I hope so.

…Safe now, probably yes. Safe ten years from know, probably no. Puts a lot of stress on the knees.
