I can't tell you how many times I've done stuff like this.

Since you're able to lift nice and strong already, you might start thinking about splitting this up a little...the big lifts can really take it out of you, so if you split it the way I'm going to suggest, you can focus on them even better.

Consider alternating these workouts with a day of rest inbetween:
Workout A:
Squat
Bench
RDL (Romanian Deadlift(
Row

Workout B:
Deadlift (conventional)
Military Press
Leg Press (one of the machines that is actually helpful)
Chin-Ups/Pullups

You can add a bicep exercise and a tricep exercise, as well as an ab or calf one at the end, if you want, but not necessary.

So one week you'd do A-rest-B-rest-A-weekend and the next week you'd do B-rest-A-rest-B-weekend

With the conventional deadlifts, as you get into the higher weights, it's better to do lower reps (like less than 6) as form breakdown happens quickly.

Good to see you lifting!
