Ok guys, got it - will try both adding the 5%, and will also try to do as muskate says - will see what works best in practice for me. What about some muscles that respond better to repetitions, and not weight - what do I do about them?

By how much do I need to increase the weights I lift?By a fixed percentage, as I feel, or depending on the reps I can do?For example, if I can bench 100 kgs for 8 reps. Should I increase itby 20% to be 120kg, or as much as I can lift for 8 reps? Or maybemore weight less reps?
