Studies have shown that for each exercise, 2-4 working sets of 6-12 reps at 65-85% of your 1rm will increase hypertrophy up to 10-15% above other working sets. Keep in mind that with these sets/reps you will need to lift with hypertrophy in mind, meaning training until failure, explosive on the concentric and slow & controlled on the eccentric.
Keeping the training style mentioned above in mind the studies based the results on two groups. The first group being either high load 6-15 reps or high load 8-12 reps, and low load 20-30 reps, or low load 25-35. The second groups showed an average 10-15% less hypertrophy compared to the first groups.
