Locking your knees can lead to fainting due to pooling of blood in the leg veins, causing orthostatic hypotension. This condition commonly occurs at events where people stand for a long time. Some individuals are more prone to fainting due to poor circulation, while others might not faint at all. It's crucial to avoid locking your legs to prevent fainting episodes.
