Do about five sets per muscle group per week to maintain muscle

For untrained or typical individuals, about 5 sets/week per muscle group in the 30–80% 1RM range is the minimum to maintain muscle.

1 / 1

So what this means is for the typical person who hasn't done a lot of weight training, you need to do at least five sets per muscle group.
