About BMF
Body Mind Fitness (BMF) is a veteran-founded fitness and wellness brand built on the belief that physical strength and mental resilience go hand in hand.
Founded by Marine veteran Claude Cintron, BMF draws inspiration from his military experience, passion for fitness, and background in mental health. Having experienced firsthand the challenges of military service and the transition to civilian life, Claude understands the importance of building strength, confidence, and a sense of purpose—both inside and outside the gym.
Today, BMF offers personalized one-on-one and small-group training in Rancho Bernardo, San Diego, while working toward a bigger vision of bringing fitness, mental wellness, and community together under one roof.
Our Mission
To empower individuals to build stronger bodies, more resilient minds, and greater confidence through personalized fitness, meaningful connection, and a commitment to personal growth.
Rooted in the values of discipline, perseverance, and community, BMF is especially passionate about supporting veterans and first responders while welcoming anyone ready to challenge themselves and grow.
Our Vision
Our vision is to create a one-of-a-kind fitness and wellness destination where physical training, trauma-informed therapy, and community come together.
Inspired by Claude's military experience and his understanding of the mental and emotional challenges that can accompany service and transition, the future BMF facility will be designed to support the whole person—not just physical performance.
We envision a welcoming space where veterans, first responders, and the broader community can train, access mental health support, connect with others, and build lasting resilience.
Our ultimate goal is to create a community where strength goes beyond the physical, and no one has to navigate life's challenges alone.
