Tissue tolerance is how much load a tissue can currently absorb before it complains.
It changes with sleep, last week's miles, and last session. In 📝Sports Therapy the useful question is what this tissue can take now, not what it took in a peak season. The phrase is a planning finding, not a diagnosis of a weak tissue, and not a guarantee. Complaining that is sharp, unexplained, or worsening is a referral.
Clients feel the edge as the first niggle. Pushing past it on the table is the wrong dose.
