And for practicality, correct me if I have misunderstood, but if the SM is the limiting factor then you want to do more SM exercises, which we are unsure about- but the general consensus seems to be that this would be mostly jelqs, and if the tunica is the limiting factor then you would want to do more stretches. This seems very logical.

Now, one thing I am still finding very mysterious is the idea of break gains and deconditioning. Based on general muscle training principles it seems like if decon breaks were taken they should be much shorter than training periods, and should only last maybe 1-2 weeks? I think in the case of overtraining decon breaks are extremely important for recovery, but in general training I'm not sure how they play in. Anyways, sorry to get off track from what is already here.

Seems to me what you have come up with is a more accurate and precise method of interpreting PIs to fine tune your training methods. When combined with Pis to measure overtraining vs undertraining, and overall health, this is good stuff man. Very well done
