Is hardmaxxing before getting to 10-12% bodyfat dumb?

[HairyHairyBoy]

Feel like im chopped and don’t get any iois. The lowest bodyfat I’ve gotten to was like 16-18%. Never gotten abs before, do I maybe take Reta and try to get lean af then hardmaxx after seeing how I look? Or just hardmax no point?

Take reta, lean out, debloat and see what you look like before hardmaxxing
