I have to start of with a shoutout to Melissa, one of the morning class coaches. She is the sweetest, most kind, patient, intelligent, welcoming and hilarious people I've ever met. If you're a beginner, start off in the mornings because Melissa will give you the support to build confidence in your own body!The owner, Rick, is very experienced and takes your workout time seriously. His genuine goal is to make sure everyone can reach their goals and become stronger. He creates ample opportunity for athletes to learn new things, and frequently coordinates supplemental classes to perfect your lifting technique, or better your mobility with some yoga at no extra cost to the athletes.There is a lovely sense of community amongst the athletes at this box. There are always social gatherings, they celebrate birthdays a few minutes before class, and people are always encouraging each other when someone is finishing their last few reps of a WOD or reaching for a PR.I encourage you to push yourself physically and mentally, starting with CrossFit Chula Vista. Welcome to your new home!

Just go. Any concerns you might have about going to a gym where everyone is super fit and throwing around heavy weights will be relieved once you spend a little time there. The coaches are great, and there are always modifications available for people of all fitness levels. It's a great community and a positive environment to work out in.

CrossFit Chula Vista is the best gym I’ve ever attended. Rick and the other coaches make you feel welcome and safe from Day 1. They get to know you as an individual and will help you from wherever you are starting. For example, I came in with a shoulder injury, and Rick walked me through strength and mobility exercises that have improved it greatly. The community is so inclusive and encouraging, no matter your background or level of CrossFit experience. The space is perfectly equipped, and the programming is extremely well-organized and executed: it pushes you physically but always with an emphasis on using the correct form so that you remain injury free. CrossFit Chula Vista is a special place, and I feel very fortunate to have found it.

I've been a loyal member of CrossFit Chula Vista for years, and it truly feels like a second family. Rick, the owner, creates a supportive environment where everyone looks out for each other. The emphasis on preventing injuries is a top priority, and I can proudly say I've never experienced any injuries during my time here. Thanks to the dedicated coaches, my overall health has never been better. Highly recommend this gym to anyone seeking a welcoming and safe place to pursue their fitness goals.

Excellent atmosphere. I visited for the week and the first person I met was Ricl the owner, who is a former games competitor. So, with that experience comes knowledge and expertise in all facets of crossfit. Chula Vista Crossfit would be my gym if I was from the area.

I'm so grateful with my experience at the CrossFit Chula Vista box! The programming is challenging, but the coaches always pay close attention to everyone's scaling needs. You can find everyone from all fitness levels, but still feel in a non-intimidating environment.Coaches Rick, Melissa and Leilani are fun and very professional gave me great coaching tips on lifts and always asking what felt right or wrong about the workout and what challenged me the most ???.I appreciate everything and will gladly come back again. I enjoyed every moment of my time there! Gracias (:

If you are someone who is looking for an outstanding gym look no further. CFCV has given me so much over the years, from amazing training to building great relationships with a community who loves fitness. The owner and coaches are knowledgeable and friendly. They love what they do! If you are looking to get into CrossFit for the first time or maybe you have been doing it for many years CFCV is a gym that anyone can call home. My happy place since 2017.

If you are ready to get fit this is the place for you. This gym builds a community around health/fitness so you feel like part of the family. With great coaches and no shortage of equipment you will get everything you need each and every time you show up. They are also extremely inclusive and prepared to work around any sort of injuries or limitations that you might have. The hardest part is deciding to walk through the door but once you do you won't want to leave!

This gym will force their political views and opinions down your throat. I have felt the most unwelcome and uncomfortable with this gym than I have in any other CrossFit box I’ve ever been to. I’ve only ever experienced the most amazing family mentality from CrossFitters and that’s what I’m used to, so expecting that was my norm. However, the people in this gym will strive to make you feel excluded and singled out. No matter how many second chances they get, they keep letting you down. The mentality here is toxic and I’m very disappointed.

If growing physically and mentally stronger is your goal, this is the perfect gym for you. Before every workout, you will be provided with a mindset message. This is just one example of how the owner goes out of his way to support each member. He has a keen eye for precision in lifting, and patiently explains any recommended adjustments. This ensures maximum growth without injury. Each trainer is extremely supportive and very knowledgeable in training people at every fitness level. CrossFit Chula Vista is more than a gym. It’s a community that makes you feel like family.

I've recently tried contacting them through the email they have on the website and I didn't get a response. However, when my friend contacted them they responded right away. Speaks heaps about the types of people running this business.Reply: So you now know it’s not spam and have not replied yet.

I attempted contacting them through email and got no response. When I posted a Google review for the no response, the owner responded on Google reviews saying that the email I sent was marked as spam. He still didn't respond to my question in the email even though he now knows it's not spam. I expected a more professional approach from a business owner. I would have of gladly changed my review if this situation was handled correctly. Due to this reason I don't recommend coming to this establishment.

The best gym out there. Coaches are very knowledgeable and emphasize proper technique and form regularly. There is adequate space in the gym and and always looks clean and organized. Atmosphere is fun and supportive. The CrossFit method is the best for me and after trying other CrossFit 'boxes', I would say this gym is worth every penny.

CrossFit Chula Vista is a great place to get your sweat on. There is careful care to bring each person to where they are safe and comfortable. The instruction is very specific and detailed. There’s tons of energy and team motivation. The landscape is competitive and everyone cheers each other on. As general team rules: “No whining, no complaining, and suffer in silence.” It’s fun.
