Open to participants worldwide
Welcome to The Shortcake Summer Shred — a 6-week challenge built for people under 5'4" who want to gain real strength, increase metabolism, and lose body fat without overcomplicated programming or endless cardio. Exercises are chosen to suit shorter frames so every movement feels right.
This program is specifically made for the busy shortcakes- we will be working 4 days on and 3 days off (but there is an optional 5th workout for those who want it!)
**FOR THE AT-HOME GIRLIES: dumbbells and resistance bands (short and long) are strongly recommended
This program focuses on:
✨ Strength training tailored to petite proportions: exercises and movement choices that target the right muscles for shorter limbs and smaller frames.
🔥 Fat loss through smart programming, not starvation: muscle-building strength work that boosts metabolism and shapes your body.
🏋🏽♀️ Efficient, effective workouts: no fluff. Just structured, progressive sessions designed to deliver visible, tangible results in six weeks.
💗 Confidence-building structure: clear, week-by-week plans for beginners and experienced lifters alike, so you get stronger without guessing.
If you’re ready to finally follow a plan made for you, this challenge is your next step.
PRIZES: I will be giving away my own prizes for this challenge, EXCLUSIVE to the Shortcake community ❤️ winners will be chosen by who shows up the MOST- not only in the amount of workouts completed, but also in the community chat!
1st place: $500 Oner Active gift card
2nd place: $250 Oner Active gift card
3rd place: $100 Oner Active gift card

Her workouts and the way she runs her challenges are so validating for someone who is petite and afraid to look silly in the gym while trying to figure out machines! She’s not only helpful in her explanation of things but also makes you feel so seen! Love it all!

What can I say? This community has meant everything to me, even when something terrible happened, these ladies supported me like no other, even if I'm on the other side of the world. I grew confidence, started to love the gym again and started to transform my body - exactly what I wanted out of this. Maya has created something incredibly special and she should be SO proud. If you're thinking about joining, do it! Not only do we have a welcoming community, there's so much support whether you're new to working out or not. Detailed explanations and videos to support each exercise, meal books and you can now even track your calories and macros! This is your sign to do this! You can achieve so much within 6 weeks. Thank you Maya! ❤️

Loving this challenge so much! I love having a clear plan of what I’m coming to the gym to work on.
"As petite women, we're told to stick to 1200 calories and only do cardio. This outdated advice prevents us from building strength and creating the body of our dreams. I transformed my shape training hard, eating high-protein and whole food meals, and shifting my mindset. Now, I want to help you do the same!"
"Looking back on these photos, I'm proud. I've gotten my groove for the gym back, I'm feeling my confidence coming back and my body is changing!!"
"My before and afters!"
"I'm super proud of my progress thus far and Im confident that I can continue past the 6-week challenge!"
""
"I was so emotional taking my after pictures. I feel immensely proud I stuck to a program for the first time! I have hit so many milestones in the past six weeks. Thank you endlessly for making a program for women like me!"
"34in waist NOW 31 inchesss, 2 inches off my arms, size medium to size small in tops. MARCH MADNESSSSSS I'M COMINGGGGG IN HOT!!!"
"This challenge has changed me forever and I've never been so proud of myself for finally staying consistent through it all..."
"I look forward to bettering my body and health everyday, and am so much more comfortable and confident in what I wear!"
"Before this challenge, I felt unmotivated, lethargic, and stuck in my routine. Now, I feel so proud of myself for making it through this challenge. With everything else going on in my life, going to the gym 5 times a week is NOT easy, but this challenge has enlightened me to how WORTH it that effort is. In 6 weeks, I doubled my max weights across exercises!!! I am so proud of how strong I feel. Thank you Maya!"
"Before this challenge, I felt frustrated with my postpartum body but motivated to make a change. Over six weeks, I lost just under 10 pounds of fat, dropped 4% body fat, maintained 62.4 lbs of muscle, and can now fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes again. I’m so proud of myself for prioritizing my health and showing up for myself during this season of life with a new baby!"
"Before this challenge I felt so terrible about my life choices, my body and me in general.Now I feel unstoppable, brave and proud of my accomplishments, even tho I’m no where near where I wanna be in my health journey I still made it through like a champ.In 6 weeks I lost 17lbs , I am so proud to say that I can be on a cardio machine and not breath so heavy and feel like I’m about to pass out 😂😂😂😂 this challenge didn’t only change me physically but mentally I feel stronger 🥹♥️'
"Before this challenge, I felt tired all the time and weak. Now, I feel like I’m living a totally different life! I’m sleeping better and I’m not constantly having random back pains. Also, for the first time, I discovered what it felt like to build muscle. It was the craziest experience to me! In 6 weeks I have gained muscle and dropped 2 clothing sizes and I have never felt stronger."
"Before this challenge I felt like a loose body with no purpose. Now I feel confident, healthy, and see a clear path for my health and fit journey! In 6 weeks I lost 10 pounds. I went from 130 to 120. I definitely see gains in my muscles and I overall feel lighter and healthier."
