I think it is written in NROL that your goal should be to increase weight (or reps) every time you step into the gym. My personal system is to increase weight as soon as I can complete all my prescribed sets and reps with a given weight. So if I can do 3x10 of something at 30lb, I go up to 32.5 during my next workout. Sometimes I can only complete the first set at the higher weight and I do the next couple of sets at 30, and so on until again I can complete all 3 sets of 10 at the higher weight and start the process again.
