The Ultimate Test | GORUCK Heavy
Brandon's GORUCK Heavy Experience with TG Strike Gloves
I picked up a pair of Triple Gambit gloves while training for a GORUCK HEAVY event in NYC. For those who don't know, a HEAVY is a 24-hour endurance event where participants haul 50 lb rucks and other gear (25-120 lbs) for over 40 miles. Along the way, you're led by GORUCK Cadre—Special Forces veterans—who push you to become a team while teaching valuable lessons.
Protecting my hands and feet was critical during these intense challenges. The TG Strike gloves withstood everything: carrying awkward heavy objects, working out on rough Manhattan asphalt, digging through glass-ridden sand along the Hudson River, bear walking down stairs, and more.
After 24 hours, my hands were one of the few parts of my body that weren’t blistered or scraped up.
Bonus: the gloves are still in great shape—no tears or failures—and ready for more heavy-duty use, shooting, and other activities. For dexterity and mobility, I even typed this review while wearing them! Triple Gambit gloves were a solid investment. Protect your hands and get a pair!
What is GORUCK and the Heavy Event?
GORUCK is an endurance organization founded by a former Green Beret to bring a taste of military-style physical and mental toughness to civilians. The cornerstone of GORUCK events are their Cadres—active or retired Special Forces veterans who guide participants through grueling challenges with the goal of fostering teamwork, leadership, and resilience.
A GORUCK Heavy event, the ultimate test, spans 24 hours. Participants carry weighted rucks, often over 50 lbs, while performing workouts and tackling various mental and physical challenges over distances exceeding 40 miles. The GORUCK Cadre inject lessons on leadership, honor, and teamwork, with the goal of leaving each person stronger and better prepared for life’s difficulties. If you're looking for an event that challenges your endurance, teamwork, and mental fortitude, the GORUCK Heavy is an unmatched experience.
