I thought we'd found lowrep/heavy to be the way to cut. I assume this is a cutting routine due to the cardio? I'm on the fence on that one, since cals can be added to cover the cardio, up to a point. I like the split there, if a guy's gotta do calves and shoulders.
 
I refuse to listen to anything any wrestler says about training (although the rock does seem a nice guy!!!)

I've read a few articles by wrestlers (beat Shakespeare any day!!!) and I basically think their size is due to huge amounts of steroids rather than good training.
They don't really live a life one would associate with putting on muscle (ie being on tour 300 plus days a year and carrying out mass blasts of cardio during thier shows). I read one by HHH and he spent more time doing weighted neck exercises than anything else!!! Plus a fair few of them seem to go massive extrememly quickly and then die of 'genetically large hearts'.

Henry IV, part 1 | Act 4, Scene 1

All furnish'd, all in arms;
All plumed like estridges that with the wind
Baited like eagles having lately bathed;
Glittering in golden coats, like images;
As full of spirit as the month of May,
And gorgeous as the sun at midsummer;
Wanton as youthful goats, wild as young bulls.
I saw young Harry, with his beaver on,
His cuisses on his thighs, gallantly arm'd
Rise from the ground like feather'd Mercury,
And vaulted with such ease into his seat,
As if an angel dropp'd down from the clouds,
To turn and wind a fiery Pegasus
And witch the world with noble horsemanship.
