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 criticising 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. The case is controversial, raising questions on freedom of expression. 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]
