As a general rule, the higher the hands go up in the backswing the further away from the side the elbow gets.

Maintaining the flying wedge structure established at impact fix should ensure that the relationship of elbow to side never gets strained.

More importantly, perhaps, it is not good to allow the elbow get behind the hip on the backswing.
