I think they want you to keep the same weight for all of the sets. Everything that I've seen has said that, so they more than likely want you to keep it the same. Hope that helps!

Well usually you do what is called a Pyramid (spelling is bad I know) meaning you start with a light weight and add as you go.

I wish everyone would get a partial amnesia and never use 'tone' ever again. (thanks Menance)

7707mutt is right. You start lower and work your way up. That's why you'll see that the number of repetitions goes down with each set. It is assuming that weight has been added.
