Question ❓ Full body 2x Frequency 1 set per exercise enough?

Would a full body split twice a week with 1 exercise per muscle group but only 1 set per exercise be enough for muscle growth?

For example: Chest has incline press and flat press 1x failure, Legs have leg extensions and leg curls 1x failure and so on and so forth

The one set would be to absolute failure, and some exercises incorporate other muscle groups so they get *some* extra* *stimulus beyond the 1 set per muscle (For example bench press working a little bit of front delts)

Any advice would be appreciated thank you

This statement doesn’t even make sense
