One's mental and physical energy combined is called stamina. Both are needed to create chakra. So in a sense, stamina reserves = chakra reserves. Though chakra also has to be molded, so it's technically not chakra until it's used for a technique. Except people have been noted to have specific chakras released. God i hate the sloppy terminology use in this series. Also, Naruto could only use Rasenshuriken two/three times when it was incomplete, and doubled it with Sage Mode. So either way, i don't see the problem here. Sasuke notes during VOTE1 that he wonders what'll happen if he does a third, which leads to the Curse Seal part of the fight.

It seems there's some leeway, since in the Chunin exams it mentions that you must seek a balance, whereas in later cases we saw people with greater mental capacity (basically Sasuke's whole MS phase) grow their reserves accordingly.

It's also not clear if mixing these energies in wildly different ratios creates wildly different effects. Like, if i have 10 points of Physical energy and 100 in mental, does that mean i get 20 (10P+10M) chakra? Does that mean i get 110 (10P+100M) Chakra? Is there some limit up to which i can create what is still chakra, and beyond that it loses it's special properties (e.g. 10P+50M)? There's basically evidence for both. We've seen people with extremely strong bodies and little in the way of mental prowess (raikages, for instance) but we've also seen extremely powerful mental characters with apparently little chakra (e.g. Shikamaru).
