Alex Vargas

Alex discovered CrossFit in his twenties while searching for a way to lose weight and build a healthier lifestyle. At nearly 300 pounds, he knew he needed a change, and CrossFit provided the perfect combination of gymnastics, weightlifting, cardio, community, and nutrition. Through hard work and dedication, he transformed both physically and mentally, and now he’s passionate about helping others do the same.

Outside of the gym, Alex leads a team of developers designing AI-driven tools for software and hardware applications in the semiconductor industry. With a deep love for technology and problem-solving, he thrives on pushing the boundaries of innovation.

In his free time, Alex enjoys reading across different genres and escaping into nature through backcountry hiking and fishing. The outdoors is his way of resetting and finding balance.

As a coach, Alex is dedicated to helping people break through their limits and achieve things they never thought possible. He knows firsthand the impact that CrossFit can have on both body and mind, and he finds immense fulfillment in guiding others on their own transformative journeys.

Proudest moment: One of his proudest moments has been getting married and welcoming his baby daughter into the world. It’s been a life-changing experience that has brought him a new sense of purpose and gratitude.
