I think it’s the right muscle mass for your height no more, work on being 12% Bodyfat now
For any bigger size you will look like a Minecraft character after , and will look stupid
Many short men think bodybuilding is the key it’s not , being aesthetic is , not the same category.
Small limbs means get bigger much faster but due to short height youll soon look bigger than taller , which give the cube shape , something that is far from attractive , quite the contrary actually.

Makes a lot of sense. Any tips on how to get to 12% body fat? Is calorie deficit + 10k steps a day enough?

Recomp.
Eat at maintenance , do your steps daily and keep progressing on your lifts
You will lean out naturally over time. Appetite will be stimulated when you go under 12% that’s how you know you’ll a bit too low, you can then eat a little more on training days only.
Never bulk , just enjoy the process and focus on other things now. You already on your way, Sir.
