So I've been doing Phraks Greyskull http://i.imgur.com/XbsMMJU.jpg on my 4th week now, however i believe I'm doing it wrong and would like input on some concerns i have.
1. Am i supposed to increase weight weekly? Or every session? Even if i can only hit 5 reps on the last amrap set?
2. I have been alternating Squats and Deadlifts as an A and B workout, is it always Squats Mon/Wed and Deadlifts only once a week on Wed?
3. Are the increments supposed to be for example 2.5lbs on each side of the barbell? Or in total?
My lifts as of now in (lbs): OHP 85, Squat 140, Bench 135, Bar Rows 115, Deadlifts 140.

It was my understanding that if you complete less than 5 reps on the amrap you have to de-load 10% of total weight and work back up. If you're getting 5 reps, then the program says to continue adding weight.
As for how often to increase weight, well I assume that you increase each session in a lift until you can't get 5 reps
>Are the increments supposed to be for example 2.5lbs on each side of the barbell? Or in total?
Total

That's what I'm confused about, I don't want to be adding weight too soon or too late

You do indeed increase weight each session.

1. Every workout
2. Squats are done Mon and Fri, deadlift on Wed.
3. 2.5lbs total, buy micro plates on upper body movements 5lbs total on lower body movements.
Read the book pls.

To expand on this, they actually sell 1.25 lb "micro plates" specifically for this purpose.
