Yes - in fact I revisited the plan you offerred, and I was doing about 75% of your suggested moves already (didn't know the names of many). I've added in some that I wasn't, and have shaken up my routine quite a bit. Switching from a free bar to dumbbells hurt the shit out of my chest in a good way (I usually just do dumbell presses on a 45 deg bench, uh...incline?) Doing the bench last after shoulders and squats lowers what I can do, but makes me feel it more in the chest as the supporting muscles are already thrashed.
I'm not trying to just do more - in fact I'm basically not doing more than 3 exercises per area. I am bringing weight up and reps down a tad, and trying to rest less between sets. Upping intensity while trying not to be so exhausted overall that I fall or drop something.
