Do any of you guys alter your weight and reps from set to set in the same session? I've gotten into the habit of doing 4 sets, increasing weight from one set to the next, starting with 15 reps for the first, 10 for the second, 8 for the third, and finally 6-8 for the last.

I always think of the first 3 sets as 'warm ups' for my final heavy set, which is the only set i take to failure.

Is this a bad way to train? From reading some of your posts i get the impression that most people don't train this way.
