Speaking of Tunica,

If anyone of you has cut up a chicken or seen your girlfriend/wife/sister done it you will see a thin, white sheath of membranes that encloses the muscle meat of the chicken, cow, wild game etc..

That is called fascia, or in our case, the tunica. Extremely hard to stretch or deform. It breaks or shreds if you aren't careful.

It's nature’s way of protecting us. Stops us from going too far and also protects our internal organs from damages.

When you fall the fascia (Tunica) Surrounds our muscles stopping all intrusions into our bodies unless we get hit by a bullet or sharp stick and so on.

The tunica will stretch but it takes years and years of dedication.
