I pretty much have been following this type of routine for the last year. Starting with a few heavy sets, then going lighter and upping the reps to finish. The only thing I possibly do different and have found very beneficial is pushing each set to failure - when you can no longer complete that last rep without 'cheating' or a spot. the diet is important too as mentioned. More protein, less carbs and don't sweat the fatty stuff too much seems to do the trick. I've managed to gain over 10 pounds in the last year like this, which I'm very happy with. Good post.

I would also add that 30-45 sec between sets is crutial for that increased intensity. You don't have to translate intensity into explosive or super heavy, but the overall volume and time under tension has to be there. So slow and controlled can add plenty of muscle too, and may lead to less injury for those not used to lifting heavy. Oh yeah, start your workout with the largest muscles like the legs and back (squats, deadlifts) and get that T-boost you are looking for. Free weights with compound movements are the only thing people need to worry about...playing on machines won't get you big and strong. Good post.
