Should I add another weights session or some cardio?

Currently training with the following split:

Push
Pull
Legs

Generally I am doing this 3 times a week, occasionally I get 4 sessions in. I rotate my exercise every 4/6 weeks. Currently eating just above maintenance, hitting my macros nicely. I have gained 4kgs but increased strength and muscle mass. I will be dropping into a gradual calorie deficit for 4 weeks then plan to then do a harsher mini cut for 3/4 weeks before a summer vacation. Generally my diet and nutrition is on point.

Objective is to lean out, reduce body fat for holiday. Ideally 10% body fat, similar to my profile picture.

I would like to add either an additional weights session (full upper body) or an hour of cardio.

What would people here do if given the chance. An extra hour of cardio a week or a weights session?

Any advice welcome.
 
If your trying to cut more cardio. I wouldn’t add more volume. If anything I’d reduce the number of sets done on a strict cut. In a slight deficit you can keep it the same but the last four wees you said your going to increase the deficit I’d lower the volume or intensity. I personally like to keep intensity high and drop volume. So I still push hard but do a few less sets. Others like to reduce intensity.
