38 reviews for Silver Era Aesthetics Program

Silver Era Aesthetics was created by YouTube fitness educator Natural Hypertrophy, this workout program is a tribute to bodybuilding's Silver Era (hence the name).

The essence of the Silver Era, as championed by icons like Steve Reeves, lies in the V-taper, accentuating the shoulders, lats, and a chiseled core, which are central to this program.

There are 2 variations of the program. An intermediate Variation with 3 days per week, or Advanced Variation with 3-4x per week. Each workout targets your full body.

Really enjoyed this program! I will cycle back to it in the future. Slightly modified to better fit my gym flow, but regularly completed in 60-75 min. Good mix of upper and lower body workouts each day. Challenging exercises as I worked through the 16 weeks and added weight as I progressed.

This will work your stamina as well or you’ll need to be at the gym for 2+ hours to complete

Great program, I enjoyed the scheduling of not having to worry about making up my own workouts. Every workout was excellent.

After tearing my ankle last year, I wanted to restart my workouts, so I chose Hypertrophy instead of Powerlifting as before, as I wanted to focus more on the technique than on straight gains. This workout program is perfect for reentry after injuries, as you don't run on RPE9 all the time, but softer and you strenghten your core, with really good visible efects. Slight changes in some muscleparts, as my body just can't comprehend some listed workouts, but 9/10 would recommend.

Generally fun program. Pelican curls were a nice addition. At least the 3 day variation takes me around 1:50h to complete, which I find is too long.

Great program. Just the amount of variation to keep things interesting while doing full body 3 times a week. Doable in my garage gym with a rack, cable pulley, dumbbells and a barbell. Maybe its my lack of conditioning but the workouts take me well over 90 minutes most of the time even while supersetting everything. Maybe that will be different inside a full gym with stacking and restacking weights due to machines.

All around a great program. The 60-90min stated is accurate. I would label myself as intermediate and this is a good challenge. The increased frequency, definitely helped with lower body strength. 8/10 - with some personal changes 10/10
