I think you should consider less gauge strings , if you go on pressing harder to make the notes sound cleaner you'll have problems playing faster.

If you're sure that some strength is what you need , the best way to get that is doing string bending exercises for each indiviual finger and in any combinations you know ... I'm not talking about full step bending , you'll have to go at least 2 steps (4 frets) and up to 8 or 9 frets bending (the 8 frets bending doesn't have to work on every place on the fretboard or every string).
