I personally don't pyramid. I work up to my maximum weight and then do one all out set including either drop sets(similar to pyramiding but more intense) or forced reps.
Standard pyramiding would involve choosing weights that enable you to do the following reps
12, 10, 8, 6, 8, 10, 12
or
12, 10, 8, 6, 10, 15
But you end up doing 6 odd sets per exercise. This is too much IMO.
