Hopefully not needed! I broke my foot in 3 spots once and didn't need a cast. Just kept it wrapped and needed crutches / a cane for a bit.

What's your diet looking like? I'm trying to raise mine up to around 300 now
 
im going to lower it because 264 was too tough for me to big of a jump

350 carbs
227 protein
65 fats

i tried to switch it to
325 carbs
277 pro
65 fats

but i was only getting around 225 and then started feeling sick. i have 4 scoops protein a day and then a ton of eggs, tuna, and chicken. last night i was eating two cans of tuna at like 1045 and then a protein shake before bed because i missed my morning protein shake. i need to do a little better timing my meals.
 
Looks good. I'm aiming to switch mine up to be more like 275P 300F 100C (carbs peri-workout). It's going to be a bit tough as it's the first time I'm trying out a TKD. I usually do a CKD when recomping or cutting.

Chest workout- tested my self today. Ive been on vacation at a indoor water park for the past 4 days so I haven't lifted anything but my kids on and off slides and throwing them in the wave pool. if you guys have suggestions about helping me get my bench up I'm all ears, not powerlifting style anymore, i tore my pec last april. I still have my slingshot though maybe i could use that a bit.

barbell bench
135x12
175x10
225x6
275x1
315x1- haven't done this in almost a year 11 months to be exact !!

plyo clapping push ups
3x8- couldn't get 15 each set my chest was toast !!

overall workout -8.5 i usually do some kind of tricep and or shoulder workout with this but i was tanked. on a good note i came home to my newly fitted ankle/foot brace that i can walk around with. its a bauerfiend brace which is the only ones i like to use because it gives you more room to walk around and its not cast like. do you guys think i should use my slingshot and do reps with it ? i used to only use it on the last set of bench to hit sticking points i have never really done reps with it over 3-5 reps really. you think it would be beneficial ? i have the old red one somewhere lying around.

I'm not powerlifting anymore myself either due to a shoulder injury and one surgery, plus a back injury, but I'll read this over and see if I can help ya out. I used to train using 5/3/1 with periodization bible assistance work, basically a powerbuilding routine.
 
Honestly, I think adding in low rep work and pressing twice a week would really help get your bench up if you're feeling good now after the pec tear. You could do something like 5/3/1 for your big lifts, while doing volume work for assistance lifts. I do this with some of my lifts currently, mainly the squat. I add in 3 rep squats multiple times per week in order to bring up my squat #'s and back strength as well. It's helped me tremendously with my numbers and with my back pain due to the strength increases. Unfortunately, I can't really flat bench anymore though.

edit: Also meant to say, I'm not familiar with benching with a slingshot. I've always lifted raw myself, haven't tried any gear.

sorrry so many updates i've had them saved , but today is my last dose of the mst, im doing 1.5 scoops !! going out with a bang !
 
final review

taste: 9- its a very smooth taste not to over bearing or too sweet right on the money for me. it was like a fruit punch crystal light without the sugar which i dont mind at all.

mixability:10- I could mix anything with it and it mixed perfectly. you dont need a blender bottle to mix this in. mst did a great job with this. there are a bunch of ingredients which had me thinking it was going to be pretty hard to mix but it was great and dissolved very easily.

pumps: 10- not too much that it will stop your workout but you definitely get some great blood flow. whenever i did legs i felt like they blew the hell up. i have pretty small legs but this made me feel swollen. as you go through the tub it hits your quicker and quicker too. around the end of my tub i was feeling it during my warm ups which had me very excited to go kill some weights.

ingredients; 10- who ever made this is a str8 up scientist man. everything fits perfectly for any type of workout. if you want a long endurance workout the energy is there, a quick pump workout its there, BA tingles ? add a half a scoop and get to work. great job

focus and energy:10- sometimes my workouts would take almost two hours and it never died down. that is very hard to do without putting a lot of caffeine in a product and MST only put the clinical dose which was very impressive.

overall 10- I really enjoyed this pre workout and I hope more ppl take advantage of this pre. Its hands down a legit product and you will not be disappointed. I was hitting PRs left and right throughout this log and pushed myself as much as I could until i got injured. I want to thank jwa254 and gutter pump for supporting me in the log and actually doing your job as reps and keeping tabs on me thanks a lot and i will be running this again in the fall !
