Tennis Elbow: 3 days on/4 days off vs. every other day ?

3 days in a row, followed by 4 days of rest
or
playing every other day.

In each scenario, you play about 3 days a week.
Which is more likely to cause TE ?
 
Most likely tennis elbow would develop in either scenario over time if the frame, strings, and / or technique is causing stress on the tendons. If I had to pick one or the other, I would suspect the 3 days in a row would be more likely to cause a noticeable issue more quickly than the every other day method. Just my thoughts, and nothing scientific.

Certainly from someone with TE/GE issues off and on, the multiple days in a row is more a killer. Every second day seems to allow some rest and regeneration before putting the arm under strain.

Continuous tennis is bad for it. But, once you 'feel' it coming on, it's already too late, the damage is done.
