The answer is in the book, but here it is: 10# on the squat might work for a couple weeks, after that, 5#. 5# on the bench and the press works for a little while, then 2.5#. 20# a couple times on the deadlift, then 10# might work for a while. Keep in mind that you'll be deadlifting once per week. I don't really think there's much of a point in doing smaller increments on the deadlift.
