In my experience, 6 weekly sets per muscle group except for arms.

Arms should be a minimum of 12 weekly sets.

Ideal rep range for compound movements is 6-10 to not be limited by endurance.
Ideal rep range for isolation exercises is 8-12 reps. You can do more even up to 30 reps if your endurance doesn't suck.

Train every muscle group twice a week. Best workout split is 5 day upper lower, 5th day is an arm day where you only train arms.

Training neck is mandatory if you have a pencil neck. RDLs and Leg Press are all you need for big legs.

Bench Press alone won't give you big arms, don't listen to the powerlifters and strength copers.

Transformation and program in my signature.

Do you mean 5 days upper and lower compound movements, with the last day just arms?

Day 1: Upper
Day 2: Lower
Day 3: Rest
Day 4: Upper
Day 5: Lower
Day 6: Arms
Day 7: Rest
... repeat

Program is in my signature along with transformation pics. Still pretty far from my goal but proud of my progress.
