If you practice Yoga, and have a degree of joint Hypermobility, be careful that you don't "Hyperextend" your elbows, especially in certain upper-body, weight-bearing positions.
This may be particularly important if you have Tennis Elbow – In which case, it might be wise to temporarily avoid these and a few other "extended elbow" poses. (Where you're putting weight on your arms.)
If you have a tendency toward Hypermobility due to Ligament Laxity (looseness) it's possible to damage your elbow joint by overstretching already lax ligaments.
