From Maya
Welcome to Shortcake Strong — 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. The Shortcake challenges are open to people of all heights, but exercises that do not suit shorter frames are excluded 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 (with an optional 5th day for those who want it!). This challenge includes 2 lower body days, 2 upper body + core days, and an optional full body conditioning day.
**FOR THE AT-HOME GIRLIES: dumbbells and resistance bands (short and long) are strongly recommended
Please note that the deadline to enter for prizes has passed, but the challenge is still open to join.
This challenge 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.
🧠 Discipline, self-love, self-trust: Six weeks of showing up for yourself. Every session you finish is a promise kept, and by week 6, 'I can't' turns into 'I did.'
If you’re ready to finally follow a plan made for you, this challenge is your next step.
What’s included
✅ Workout plans with exercise, sets & reps guidance
✅ Specialized weight & rep tracking software
✅ Community feed to interact with other participants and the creator

The gym workouts keep showing up despite me being in the at home tab about 3-4 workout videos in. Hard to swap between directions and log. Mistap often leads to going to next video prematurely. Unclear what reps should be repeated on both sides or if doing other side counts as double reps.

I LOVE this challenge so far. It’s making me feel like I am stronger than I thought and I can see that on week two. I am really excited just to see the progress I make and how heavy I can go as well as working on my form. This has been the best decision I’ve made for myself. I love the community sense that it brings and having people push me and also feeling like I can also encourage them. I’m so excited 🥰

Absolutely loving this challenge. The workouts are so well thought out and you can just see the amount of care and effort Maya has put into this. Personally- I am pretty average height (5’4ish) and I loved the workouts. Making it more accessible for shorter woman is even better. Would 10/10 recommend- the community is such a great way to hold yourself accountable. In love with it!!

Shortcake #8
"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!"
Shortcake #9
"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!"
Shortcake #10
"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 🥹♥️'
Shortcake #11
"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."
Shortcake #12
"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."
Shortcake #13
"Before this challenge, I felt excited and determined to change my perspective and the way I was showing up for myself. Now, I feel very proud and pleased with myself because of the results, even though they may seem small. In 4 weeks, I lost 4 kilograms."
Shortcake #14
Shortcake #15
"Before this challenge, I felt very uncomfortable and unconfident. I felt lost and unsure. Now I feel like I've made progress. I feel like I have a system that is giving me results and I feel way more comfortable in my body. In 4 weeks I hit new PRs and I've lost 3 inches around my waist. The only sad part is my favorite pants don't fit me anymore!!!"
Shortcake #16
"Before this challenge, I felt like I was struggling to stay consistent and really see the progress I wanted. Now I feel stronger, more disciplined, and proud that I kept showing up for myself even on the hard days. My biggest win isn’t just a number—it’s seeing changes in my body, getting stronger with my weights, and proving to myself that consistency really does pay off. 💪🏼🥹💕"
Shortcake #17
"Before this challenge, I was in a rut and felt uncomfortable in my own body. In these four weeks, I have gained 2 pounds of muscle and visibly reduced. The appearance of my cellulite cellulite is one of my biggest insecurities so I will definitely keep going with these workouts!"
Shortcake #18
"Before the challenge I felt it hard to motivate myself to workout with challenging myself and having a group of girls motivating one another helps a lot. Before starting the challenge I weigh 180.0 of as today May 20 2026 I weigh 171.0."
Shortcake #19
"Before this challenge, I felt lost and very tired and with zero motivation!! Now I feel energized and very motivated!! I started to put myself first now for everything and I feel like a changed women! I lost 10 LBS!!! I cannot believe that!!! I now currently wear a size 2 in jeans!!!! That means I dropped 5 sizes down! I am very proud of myself and all the hard work I put into this challenge!!"
