Why even bother twice a week if maintaining? Just hit a brosplit, 10 sets per workout srs. Will do & probably make gains if you eat somwhat k

… it’s the amount of volume per week. Regardless of the exercise.

it actually doesn't take a lot to maintain your physique. I think as little as 1-3 sets a week for each body part (near max effort) is enough but you still have to be lifting heavy.

i would add bis/tris to that and switch OHP to seated dumbbell shoulder press (unless you care about OHP numbers, but bench alone can maintain it as it works very similar muscles)
