Man, I need to read your post aloud to understand them :)
Try doing the same warmup exercices, but incorporating some string skipping (yeehah)
Also, legato those alternate pick licks, and the other way around too.
Play different rhythms (5 notes per beats, 7, etc... Shawn Lane is a master at this)
Play only with downstrokes... Try playing those licks as fast as with alternate picking (I'm kidding, but try improving your speed, you'll be a shredder soon)
Last but not least, start your alternate pick licks with an UPstroke... That's quite different huh?
