Battle Cancer Manchester 2023
About This Competition
THE CHALLENGE
Your team will face an endurance test of five 10-minute workouts in 2.5 hours.
10 minutes of intense working followed by 20 minutes recovery x 5 times. Because today, 1 in 2 is affected by cancer.
Your team will be scored in each workout with comparable leaderboard results for Male, Female and Mixed divisions across all Battle Cancer events in 2023.
THE WORKOUTS
Pure teamwork, sweat and grind!
Bury yourself in our workouts that use a spicy combination of conditioning and fundamental kit like sandbags, dumbbells, kettlebells and plates. Back to basics and nowhere to hide.
THE FUNDRAISING AMRAP
As Much Raised as Possible. Supercharge your score by fundraising for your chosen cancer charity where every £1 raised = 1 rep.
THE WEIGHTS
Our weights are programmed to be shifted hard and fast - but still accessible for all ages and abilities.
Dumbbell men: 20kg / women: 12.5kg
Kettlebell men: 20kg / women: 12kg
Plate men: 20kg / women: 10kg
Sandbag men: 30kg / women: 20kg
