Incidents

Defamation Lawsuit against Adrian Gluck

Vulcan Strength sued the fitness YouTuber Adrian Gluck and his company Gluck's Gym LLC. on October 31, 2025 for criticizing the TALOS All-In-One Gym, in a video titled: "This Is The Worst Product I've Ever Reviewed...". Filed in the Western District of North Carolina's Charlotte Division under case number 3:25-cv-878, Vulcan Strength claimed that the video is "defamation".[1][2][3]

In response to the lawsuit, Gluck raised over $70,000 in public fundraising. Gluck himself decided to keep the video public on YouTube, citing their lack of receptiveness towards consumer feedback. He also claimed that the lawsuit was a tactic to bully him into silence.[4]

Furthermore, Gluck made a new video addressing the matter titled "I Got Sued...".[5]
