Nor will low-weight high reps do things like lengthen muscles (nor will Pilates, against all advertising claims) because the only thing that does that is surgery.
Lift a weight heavy enough that at a certain number of reps you can no longer lift it with good form. When you can accomplish that, lift a heavier weight. Saves time.

Well,
I liked adding a rep before I added weight, even if it does waste time! The fact is, you're doing weight training, and that's good. Do it however is most comfortable for you (in the proper form, of course!)
