    Meh, with such vast knowledge, i don't think you should worry about minor and specific details like sets and reps. Simply do what old school bodybuilders did. It was prior to steroids(you're not on roids), and their muscles were dense. Right?

    that some time dont lead to any thing cause every body has diff type of body, someone has to work high intensity to get the result other dont.

    but in general there are two muscle fiber
    1-slow twitch : help ex runner and its form by high reps with low wt.

    2-fast twitch : help the power and responsible for muscle growth " gain and muscle mass" and form by low reps with heavy wt.

    Make sure you do full motion with the weight to hit all fibers in the muscle your working.. My friend only does half motion, and he has a short boxy arm, while when I complete full range the fibers rip evenly along the whole muscle.
    Fast twitch = high reps lower weight
    Slow or muscular= slow low reps high weight

    Sorry I think you've got the Fast twitch/slow twitch the wrong way round.

    Fast twitch = high weight, low reps
    Slow twitch = low weight, high reps.

    Have a quick look on the mm2k website under genetics and bodybuilding.

    For "dense" muscle mass, focus on consistent heavy loading, which will increase the density of the actual muscle fibers, as opposed to training for a "pump" which just increases the volume of fluid in the muscle cells themselves.

    This.

    Progression in the gym is very key. Either using the same weight from last workout but increasing the reps or upping the weight workout to workout by 5lbs is going to yield results so long as your being consistent & providing fuel in the form of food for your growth or cut depending on ones goal.
