G Force Fitness founder George McCabe discusses how he went from being shot in the knees to forming one of Ireland’s most successful community gyms.

The Drimnagh-based gym currently has over 800 members on a daily basis and recently introduced a free running club with 250 participants.

Founder George McCabe never planned to set up a gym – or live past the age of 22. Now, with a large membership from St. John’s Bosco Community Centre, George does not have any goals on when he will die!

“My ambition now is to wake up every day and keep doing what I’m doing,” he said.

He chatted with Reggie Corrigan as part of our Dublin's Sporting Communities series on Sunshine 106.8
