Great question! I don't think I have ever done a comparison. It was just something I have observed and noted others talking about. This one may be nothing more than a reshaping of the tunica. Measuing both ways should clear this one up.

Absolutely, I think the majority of what we have proposed here can be tested and hopefully confirmed or debunked. What really gives me great confidence that we are on to something is that this theory explains so many currently unexplained PE related phenomenon. It might be we need to enlist some volunteers to run some "trial" routines.

I think I may have given the wrong impression concerning this topic. I'm certainly no expert but let me clarify what I believe to be true.

The smooth muscle data we have comes from tests and observations on vascular smooth muscle. In these reports SM was reported to have generated/regenerated in both directions. The data on angiogenesis shows that entire arterial bypasses can take place from SM growth. So, the data shows the potential for growth in many directions is there.

I think the same potential exist for the tunica. It seems both tissue types have the ability to grow and expand in any direction and that neither alone is solely responsible for growth in a particular direction. I believe it is our mechanical manipulation that dictates how or in what direction we get growth. For instance, if you do nothing but stretch you most likely will gain MORE length. That is not to say you won't gain SOME girth. Some guys have gotten length gains from clamping. Neither tissue is limited in which direction it can grow. We "coax" it to grow in a particular direction by our choice of exercises.

remek, I totally agree here, I hope I haven't given the impression that I assume this. Definitely not the case!
