4/5 sets per body part:
1 warmup set of 15 or so reps
3/4 sets of 10 [+/- 2] (bigger muscles, such as pecs, quads and lats can do with that extra set, smaller muscles such as biceps or posterior delt can go with just the normal amount)
Edit: reps below 8 tend to build strength more than muscle size, 8-12 tend to promote the most muscle growth, and 12 + temd to be more for endurance. Muscle gains can be seen with all rep ranges, just the amount varies. Of course, go with your body, see what works and stick with it.
