Reply to "The Convention on Over-Use"

TBP,
The UCL by itself is only marginally capable of handling the loads from pitching. The muscles in the forearm tend to offload the UCL to some degree. Once those muscles get fatigued and can no longer offload the UCL then the UCL is far more subject to acute damage.

Unfortunately, some of what you've noted isn't well defined because it varies from person to person. It can also be difficult to precisely image the UCL in many cases. A lot of the time it is trial and error to some degree and an element of risk is involved in order to improve.
