Onwards and upwards: Peter Stringer is a co-owner and investor in Cork's F45 fitness franchise with Peter O'Keeffe, and Paul Buckley. There are six F45 studios in Dublin: the Cork owners may look as other Munster studios, including Limerick., says Stringer. Pictures Denis Minihane 

IRISH rugby legend Peter Stringer this week swaps his gruelling spell in RTÉ’s Ultimate Hell for a slightly less gruelling spell in ‘heaven’ — in the shape of Cork’s landmark Elysian building.

Aiming high: Peter Stringer and Peter O'Keeffe have high hopes at the Elysian, recreating this 50-year old classic statuesque pose "Two Working Men" by sculptor Oisín Kelly at Cork's other lofty tower the iconic County Hall.
