for bulking focus on compound exercises like squats, deadlifts, pull ups, rows, dips, etc....with reps of 6-8 reps...although you can rotate your reps and do heavier reps of 2-4 every other week...
while 'cutting' I would leave your lifting alone rep wise...or maybe shift to heavy lifting of 1-5 reps and instead just cut down on your calories....because this is ultimately how you will have to do it...do it by cutting 100-200 calories at a time and focus on getting 1.5g of protein per lb at this time and upping your healthy fat intake while getting rest of calories from complex carbs(except after workouts)....most of the calorie reduction should come from carbs...
swimming, interval training, jump roping, sports all are great for cardio
