How old is the battery? Anything over 3 years is to old. If battery is OK do this turn on all the loads, headlights, heater blower on high then start the engine and rev it a few times then shut it off and carefully feel the alternator pulley if it's super hot replace the tensioner and belt. If it's OK you'll need to hook it to a voltmeter to check the alternator load capacity. I hope this helps
