Title.

Also why do people bulk if they're at 15% when ideal muscle building happens at low teens?

Ideal is around 11-12% which is much leaner than you think, this is because you will have non-negotiable bloat from the Test and easiest way to mitigate that is leanness, but in terms of raw muscle gain it isn't of great importance.

As low as you can get. Ideally 8%.

On it. Ordered Reta last week.

Currently 184cm mid day height and around 78kg, what would be a reasonable deficit to eat on Reta + how would you divide macros to still have energy and maintain muscle mass?

I just do PSMF. I absolutely hate cutting so try to get it over with as fast as possible. Strength always returns back after I refeed for 2-3 days.

bro that's a solid question and a common debate in the fitness community for sure! there are definitely some good points on both sides though tbh
