I used the ending weight from one stage as a guideline for the starting weight the next time. I usually only adjusted the weight during one workout when I felt that I picked something too light. In terms of increasing across workouts I found I could do this a lot in the earlier stages and not too much in the end. Sometimes I felt that I could increase, and did then noticed my form suffering so dropped back. I guess the best guideline is to do something challenging. If you are doing high reps you're supposed to feel like you could do a few more at the end. For low reps you should feel like you can't even do one more.
