Posted on February 7, 2022 | 11:12am | Travel Costa Mesa

As we celebrate Black History Month, Travel Costa Mesa has partnered with a Black content creator to share stories of local Black-owned businesses and her own viewpoint of Costa Mesa and Orange County. Danielle is a social media influencer and writer who started a blog called Follow My Gut, about food experiences in LA and OC, and subsequently writing for Locale Magazine and other publications. Enjoy Danielle’s guest post and stories this month sponsored by Travel Costa Mesa!


If you’re visiting Costa Mesa with an itinerary of things to do or you plan to follow the day in whatever direction it may take you, then it’s safe to say you’re in the perfect city to do that. Whether you’re looking for places to dine or a few attractions to catch your eye, there is more than enough to fill your day in Costa Mesa. However, if at any point, should you want to incorporate exercise into your day and would like to step away from the hotel gym, there’s an experienced trainer and a motivating gym ready to welcome you.

Roger Cato of Cato X Fitness

That gym is Cato X Fitness. Owned and operated by Roger Cato, Cato began working as a personal trainer after completing his undergraduate studies in 2014 in his hometown of Chicago, Illinois. Shortly after, he made his way to California after being recruited by a national fitness-franchise to work in their Costa Mesa location. Since then, he began to perfect his trainings, research nutrition, actively build his clientele and later opened his own gym. Without the assistance of investors or partners, Cato was able to parlay hard work and dedication to open his own gym. Designed with his motivating aesthetic and mantras, and filled with his own equipment you can find his rapidly growing business on Monrovia Avenue.

The intimate gym is perfect for those looking for a one-on-one focused experience free from distractions and judgement. Whether you’re looking to box, work on cardio, use free weights, or a maneuver through a combination of practices, Cato will work alongside you to determine a fitness plan best for your health, body, and mind. Within Cato X Fitness you’ll discover that you have a trainer who will challenge and grow you. His mission is to help you reach your goals and develop you into your best self all within a space that encourages your advancement. If you’re looking to get in a quick workout or spend time dedicating to your fitness well-being, then Cato X Fitness should be your go-to destination for exercise in Costa Mesa.
