I guess it depends on your fitness level, exercise goal and training schedule (intensity, frequency) but 6-10 sets of 10 reps each seems way too much sets to be optimal for muscle and strength growth?

3 exercises with 3 sets each are 9 sets which is normal imo Also op wants to optimize motivation not necessarily muscle or strength

Ah like that, I was thinking 6-10 sets per exercise which seemed excessive. Thank you for the clarification!

I don't think he means per body part which makes this advice even more confusing. 6-10 sets divided over the whole body is nothing. Cardio is more important anyway for longevity, so I'd rather people get their 10k steps a day in than follow OP's workout advice.
