WELCOME LETTER
On behalf of myself and the staff at Alpine Ranch CrossFit I thank you for taking the first step towards a stronger and healthier life. If you’ve been looking for CrossFit near me, you have come to the right place.
I’m not going to lie. CrossFit is demanding both mentally and physically, which is precisely the reason why it changes lives. It gives you the opportunity to better yourself in an ever changing environment. Instead of going to a regular gym and wandering from machine to machine without any guidance, here you will be coached and encouraged every day with strict emphasis on safe movement.
What's the Best Part of Joining?
The family! The CrossFit community worldwide shares a unique bond. You will quickly learn to work with others as a team. Providing and receiving positive reinforcement, which will surprisingly increase your desire to push your body harder than you ever thought possible. Then, as you are recovering after a tough WOD, you look up to see a teammate helping to put your equipment away while another reaches out to give you a high five, congratulating you on your effort.
What Sets Us Apart from other CrossFit Near Me?
Alpine Ranch CrossFit has teamed up with the Challenged Athletes Foundation (CAF) to bring CrossFit to adaptive athletes in San Diego. I, myself, am an adaptive athlete. On Father’s Day 2013 I lost my leg below the knee. Just ‘21’ days after my accident, I was back doing CrossFit on one leg. I have trained relentlessly and adapted to all the movements of CrossFit with the use of my prosthetic. I could not have done it without the support of CAF. In this gym, regardless of any ailment, you are not disabled or handicap. You are an ATHLETE overcoming a setback and a champion in our hearts and mind. These athletes provide the next level of inspiration to everyone around them!
Thank you,
Chappie Hunter
Owner & Lead Coach

WHAT CLIENT'S SAY
Jane / 48y/o
I have been working out most of my life and have never trained where the Coach and clientele have such positive attitudes. Every single person who trains under Chappie encourages each other to do their best and try harder. It is an incredibly supportive environment and is a big reason why I drive from El Cajon to Alpine to work out. It is like one big family.
Elena / 35 y/o
When I first started at Alpine Ranch CrossFit I could barely do ‘1’ push-up off my knees. In less than six months I did ‘27’ push-ups off my toes! I had the same issue with pull ups. I couldn’t even pull myself half way to the bar. Now I can do ‘11’ strict pull-ups without any assistance.
Laura / 31 y/o
I love ARC because of the people and the workouts. The coaches are amazing and truly care. The weekly programming is awesome and has helped me to reach goals that seemed very distant before. ARC provides such a positive atmosphere, it’s truly a joy to come in and workout everyday.
Pat / 63 y/o
Since retiring, the thing I missed most at the PD was being around a group of hard working, motivated, friendly, sincere, serious people. Immediately after joining ARC, I recognized these qualities in the staff and in the members. ARC is an amazing bunch of really cool supportive people. This is hard to find in organizations or associations. Coach Chappie, Arlene, Lisa, Curtis, Mike & Jen are super.

Thank you Chappie & Arlene for laying the foundation of Ohana (family)! Alpine Ranch Crossfit is more than a gym! It is where trials, tribulations, challenges, accomplishments can be worked out and celebrated! The awesome workouts, but more importantly the wonderful people are the true grit that motivates and carries you when you may be having a bad day! Chappie & Arlene have created the environment of inclusion, not exclusion!! Team work highly encouraged! I can’t tell you how much I luv me some Alpine Ranch Crossfit! Thank u Coach Lisa too!
