Most people use in the 12-18 set range per workout, but really concentrate on each lift. The less time you're in the gym, the more time you have to eat .Anyway, to avoid this, like someone mentioned earlier focus more on compound movements. You don't need all the isolation exercises you have. If you'd like to do them all, you can rotate them every so often, but I usually only do 2-4 isolation exercises per workout. |

Also, what does your diet look like? If your diet's not solid, supplements could just be money better spent elsewhere. |
sometimes it's best to just keep it simple. I just wanna give you an example, I only do 2 or maybe 3 sets of bicep work in a week and it is usually just hammer curls and I have 17.5 inch arms, so my point is, it isn't always necessary to load up on bicep and tricep exercises for big arms IF you do a lot of back exercises and chest pushing movements. those really give you the big arms, plus make everything else bigger as well|

What are your goals? Do you want to get stronger? Bigger? LEaner? Once you decide on a goal, you can center your workouts around that goal to help get there faster.
I personally think you can be lifting a lot more weight than you currently are if you drop back on the volume a bit. Instead of doing so many sets and exercises, pick the best mass builders and strive to increase the weight on them every week. you will be amazed at how cutting the volume will affect your workouts, and I will bet you will be happy about it too.... sometimes it's best to just keep it simple.
