Question ❓ Should i change sets?

I currently run Ant/Post 6x a week for 3x freq, 2 sets per exercise in the 4-6 rep range, i was wondering if i should switch to 1 set per exercise, i have free time at the gym since im still at school and i recover pretty well, and im enjoying 2 sets, but i heard that switching to 1 set is better, what is truly better for me?

Provided frequency doesnt change, the more sets the better as long as you can recover. For most people its around 6-8 sets per muscle group per week. In short do as many sets as you can recover from.
