MCP - Victoria
Based in the concrete backyard of SW1, MCP is the runt of the litter and MANOR’s unconventional training area.
Designed in reaction to the safe, soft, easy, one click convenience of the modern world, everything about MCP from the sessions to the raw set up of the space is about getting comfortable with the uncomfortable.
Everything about MCP is geared towards the mental aspect of training and is designed to help build and test your resilience and grit. MCP sessions will test, challenge and help you redefine your physical and mental limitations.
Not gonna lie, MCP sessions are a little off the hook, a touch nuts, pretty intense and slightly unhinged… But sometimes, you need to go to the edge.
MCP Sessions
MANOR builds bodies. MCP tests minds.
MCP training can be done in isolation, but it can also compliment regular MANOR training sessions, two-sides of the same coin.
Gruntwork
Push, pull, carry throw, hold, big awkward objects to build true functional strength. It’s about lifting heavy awkward objects (like those you encounter in life) and getting them from A to B – whether that is from the ground to overhead, or from one end of the room to the other. Grunt work is the shit you don’t do in your conventional gym, sled work, kegs, logs, sandbags, sledge hammers, tyres, etc.

Groundwork
What’s the first thing you do when you build a house, lay the ground works, so it’s built on a solid foundation. This session is designed to lay the foundations of skill work, dynamic movements, uni-lateral work, stability, speed, power and intention. You will build a solid base with no imbalances throughout the body. This session is built on creating a complete athlete, so you can go into all the other sessions confident you have a solid balanced base to build on.
