Some research has shown that doing the military press and other lifts that raise the arms above the head can cause an impingement in the shoulder. Most current programs use the rule of thumb of "nothing heavy over the head". We don't have our kids do it. Also, lat pull-downs behind the neck can cause some problems as well.
