bulk or cut?

[Sebas94]

I'm 5'8.5" currently weighing 168-171 (varies) 20 years old. I've been steady bulking up for about 4 months now and have definitely seen a good amount of strength gains as well as mass but I'm getting a little worried about the fat. I found out I had mild scoliosis and pelvic tilt a couple months ago which made me have some bigger muscles on one side than the other and more strength one some muscles than on the other side. The main issue from all this is that the left side of my whole core (abs, lower back, hamstrings, glutes) is stronger than the right. This bulk has really been aimed at fixing this with a lot of squats and deadlifts with focus on hip drive, and everything has definitely been getting corrected, but the imbalances are still not 100% which makes me worried about starting a cut since I don't want the weaker muscles to stop "fixing" themselves by me eating less food. Maybe I'm crazy, idk lol help

In case anyone is too lazy to read everything, just look at the pics and tell me if you think I should cut or bulk

i'd advise you to slow bulk bulk, gaining no more then 2lbs a month. As far as the routine i'd advise ICF 5x5
also read the stickies in the nutrition forum

I've been doing Layne Norton's PHAT routine which is 5 days a week and have really been liking the results, I'm good with my diet (iifym ftw) I'm just not sure if I'm too fat right now lol

you do have some fat, but i think you could bulk longer if you take it slow
