A few months back I had shoulder and biceps surgery. I have known Zach and Mitch previously, so I decided to go with HIDEF for my post-surgery PT. Zach is amazing and provided me with the best PT I could hope for. A couple of months back I have switched to Alex and the transition was painless (punt intended) and my PT progress have not suffered at all.If I ever have to do another surgery (hopefully not 😂) HIDEF would be the only choice for my PT without question.

Got the chance to train here for performance training, not physical therapy, but its easy to see how the physical therapy background influences the program design. I trained primarily with Mitch but also worked a couple of times with Sean and Katie, and all of them showed phenomenal attention to detail and expertise. The program was well put together to push my limits but not over-exert me.10/10 experience, looking forward to the next time I get to train here!

Due to a car accident I had an injury that resulted in hip and knee pain. I received care from two of HIDEF doctors, Justin and Alex, who were methodical in their approach and friendly. Aside from picking the right exercises, they listened to my needs and helped decrease my pain greatly. Both doctors had different approaches that worked incredibly well together. I believe HIDEF seeks out great Physical Therapists so patients are sure to get the best care no matter the location.

Mitch is a first class trainer who gets results. He creates a connection with his clients...partnering with them to understand their individual objectives. This is not just showing up to a generic strength workout! It is thoughtfully curated programming tailored to your goals, progression and any physical constraints you have. He even gets to know specific songs you like to help bring you across the finish line when the intensity ramps up!My husband (who has back issues) and I have been doing joint sessions 2x/week and I am always amazed at how Mitch can keep us flowing seamlessly as a group...yet tailors the workout to our individual needs. Beyond all this we have a ton of fun and cheer each other on together.

Great location, great team, awesome equipment!

Sean has been one of the best personal coaches I’ve had. As a beginner to strength training, I’veseen significant progress within the past 4 months. Sean also shares top workout routines for me to practice at home. Our sessions are fun, energizing, sometimes intense, and filled with lot of curiosity! I highly recommend Sean to anyone looking to get started on their strength training journey. :)

I was suffering from knee pain due to years of bad squat form. HIDEFs physical therapist Alex Reis was beneficial in fixing my squat form and coming up with a workout program to help with the recovery. Now im back to lifting heavyweights with my squats. Thanks to her and HIDEF! They truly did change my fitness journey.

Went to HIDEF for Physical Therapy for my back issue caused by extended sitting at their Seattle Belltown location. Friendly and professional staff. Zach and Mitch helped to check my insurance plan and make the appointment. Alex took it from there and very patiently going through all my concerns, lifestyles and made my personal therapy plan. After a few weeks of weekly check-up and following the plan, my lower back problem seems to disappear. It really helped for me to focus on my work without being annoyed by the lower back problem.

Here to gush on the master of physical therapy: Dr. Alex Reis. She has truly changed my life. Not only is she an amazing physical therapist but shes just a really personable, funny and friendly person to be around. I have been seeing her for around 6 weeks or so and I look forward to our appts each week because I just know that not only will we work hard but were going to have a great time while doing it.I needed to get PT for my foot after a bunion surgery 9 months ago. I was having constant & consistent daily pain in both my foot and ankle. I went from constant pain to a very small amount of pain that I know we will work through in another month or so. This was not affecting just my physical health but my mental health, and for the first time in such a long time I feel hopeful about my recovery. When you cant fully use your feet for a long period of time it really strains you mentally, and my mental health around my recovery has improved so so much since starting PT.From the very beginning of our sessions, Alex really took her time evaluating my pain - not only in just my foot (where there was pain) but in my ankle, legs, knees and hips. We have progressively been amping up my PT sessions, working on all areas of the body to really get everything strong. I didnt realize how much my hips were suffering as well as my foot, and having her take the time to really evaluate everything in my body that has also been in pain is incredible.Not only is Alex great but the PT app that we use is super helpful and user friendly. She personally loads my PT exercises that I do at home on the app (so we both can track progress), and Alex will update the exercises as we progress through PT.I could gush all day, I really like working with Alex and Im honestly going to be sad when our sessions end and I dont get to see her each week! If you are like me and are nervous to get into PT then go see Alex because she will fix you up in no time and youll have fun in the process.100/10 would recommend Alex Reis.

I joined HIDEF thinking that I want to lose the 2020 quarantine fat, and if possible start to enjoy working out. This was my first time having a personal trainer and I am glad I took this decision. Coach Sean is an excellent trainer and very humble human being. He helped me grow my strength and most important I started to love working out. As someone who always hated working out, I never imagined myself looking forward to sessions with Sean. He noticed my weak areas and worked towards improving them. From someone who had never worked out with weights to doing squats/deadlift with around 100lbs in span of 3months, I grew, physically and mentally. Sean is an amazing trainer who knows how to read your body and customize workout accordingly. I highly recommend him.

Ive been working with Sean at HIDEF for around two months. Every session is well thought out and helps me progress towards my fitness goals. He is incredibly knowledgeable about personal training and is very fun to train with. I look forward to every workout as well as the laughs that are had along the way.

I have been working out with Sean through Hidef for about 2 months now and I have only the highest of praises for him. All around nice guy and knows what he is doing. I look forward to going every week. He not only helps my physical fitness, but he’s insightful and funny also! I am so happy I found a personal trainer I like. For anyone that is thinking about doing personal training, ask for Sean!

I’ve been training with Mitch and the team for six months and they are the absolute best! Mitch understands weight training and how to help you achieve your goals realistically. He plays good music too! I highly recommend the Hidef team!

I have been working with many physical trainers and therapists over the years. This is truly the very best because they listen to you. They pay attention to your body and minds current limitations and push your potential. Past trainers only went through the motions, always looking at the clock. These professionals actually care about you. Worth every penny and every minute youre there. I highly recommend the professionals at HIDEF Seattle!!

I have been working with the HiDEF team (Sean and Katie) for personal training and nutrition. I made the choice of getting back in shape after my father died recently. Since working with Sean and Katie I have experienced immediate changes especially in terms of dealing with inflammation. I knew going in I had very specific requirements. 1) I’m an extremely busy professional so flexibility is key and 2) personal one on one coaching. I’ve trIed many diets in the past and I knew that I needed something special as most diet and exercise programs seem to be catered to non BIPOC individuals. Besides the custom support and programming, Sean and Katie have been great at moving around meeting times given my hectic schedule. Payment plans are flexible and you can get discounts for paying early. As for my physical results, I’m able to lift more and recovery has been getting much better. Now that we have been building up my lean muscle, we will be working on cutting next. I’m not worried about this step because my nutritionist has me on a plan that is doable and keeps me full as we track everything at the macro level. Wonderful program that I plan to continue as I work on to achieve my goals before I turn 40.

Like many people, COVID really derailed my health goals and aspirations over the last year. I had gotten to a point in February 2021 where I felt I needed to get moving again and after doing some research I reached out to HIDEF Seattle. Within minutes, Coach Mitch reached out and explained the offerings, program options available, and benefits of partnering with HIDEF.I decided personal training with HIDEF was what I needed to meet my health goals and Coach Mitch connected me with Coach Sean for my first session the following Monday. This turned out to be the best decision!!The first session with Coach Sean was a great introduction to personal training. Looking back now, the first session really set a great foundation of what I could expect as I moved forward working with Coach Sean. Coach Sean spent most of the first session assessing my then-current levels of general mobility and fitness, documenting baselines and really understanding what I specifically was hoping to get out of personal training. My background prior to this was mostly with group fitness classes, and the thought of personal training was a little intimidating but throughout my first session, Coach Seans professionalism, knowledge, and willingness to share that knowledge made me feel completely at ease.In the weeks since my first few sessions I have come to appreciate how data driven Coach Sean is, documenting my progress and using that information as he has programmed my training moving forward. Coach Sean has used the data gathered to challenge me in the best ways--he knows when I need to be pushed and pushes me, but never to the point where Ive felt overwhelmed or like I might injure myself. Coach Sean is a stickler when it comes to form on each movement and makes sure I dont shortchange or cheat myself. Coach Sean also has a keen eye for noticing things to train that arent readily apparent--for me that is my balance. He always makes sure we incorporate something that challenges me in that aspect.After my sessions with Coach Sean, I always feel better than when I walked in and always leave feeling like I accomplished something difficult.I am someone who likes to understand the whys behind the things I am doing and Coach Sean has always been willing to breakdown the science behind any movement explaining what muscle I am working and why we are working that. Ive never felt like Ive asked a dumb question and Coach Sean always explains things where I can understand what we are doing.With Coach Seans training, encouragement, and support I have seen measurable changes in my body composition and overall fitness levels. For maybe the first time ever, I feel like my fitness goals are attainable. Coach Sean keeps me accountable both in and out of the gym, checking in regularly on my overall diet as well as making sure that I am still moving on days that we arent training.Overall, I highly recommend HIDEF and Coach Sean! Partnering with them since the first of the year has been the best decision I could have made for my health journey! Im just upset I didnt start sooner!Thank you Coach Sean and the HIDEF Team!

Working with Mitch as my nutrition/fitness coach has been an amazing journey. When we first started out, I was traveling often, training the same way over and over, and eating what I thought would improve my physic. Needless to say, it wasnt working, and in fact it was doing quite the opposite. At the beginning of the journey my main focus was to get lean and shed some unwanted weight. Mitch worked diligently with me, putting together a macro profile and workout routine that fit my goals and busy schedule without feeling hungry and overworked. With such a busy schedule, I was always dealing with obstacles, but Mitch always offered suggestions in making things easier when on the go and was constantly recreating workout routines as I was having to adapt to new environments frequently. Through this process with Mitch my life has taken a complete 180 - I started recreating my favorite dishes in the kitchen with fewer/healthier/whole food ingredients (which has evolved into a passion of mine). Not only did I feel full more frequently throughout the day, but I also saw results and continue to see results today. With consistency and tracking macros, Im more aware of how my body should feel after a meal and a good workout and Im more knowledgeable around health and fitness than Ive ever been. Thanks to Mitch, I feel better than ever and Im very appreciative of his continuous support and knowledge that he has shared over the years.

I have been working with Katie 3 times every week since past 4 months and all I can say is, best coach one can ask for. My sessions are very well structured, she pushes me to do better and is always ready to answer all my question. Its so much fun working with her and I am really happy with my progress. I am stronger, my posture is better, my stamina is improving and its all thanks to her.

Highly recommend this place! I was very new to working out and lifting weights so I worked with Mitch for two months to help build a foundation. He paid very close attention to my form and adjusted it when necessary. He also made sure to ask where I would feel each exercise so we could make sure I was activating the correct muscles. He made modifications for me when necessary and helped me understand the purpose of each exercise. As a newbie, this was exactly what I was looking for. He also has very good energy and makes working out fun. Hes genuinely happy for you when you reach your goals and excited for you when you push hard. Hes very professional, organized and makes sure to keep all the equipment clean after every workout.

Mitch is a great personal instructor! He was positive and encouraging. What worked really well for me for his focus on making sure you do exercises the right way before you start working towards the goal. Highly recommended!

I started training with Katie right when I moved to seattle in aug 2020! Best decision I’ve made!! She is encouraging, inspiring, knowledgeable, and an amazing teacher and trainer! I’ve learned so much from her and enjoy training twice a week. I’ve gotten stronger and love the workouts/moves I used to dread. HIGHLY recommend!!

I worked with Katie to help craft a tailored nutrition program. Katie took in many data points - from my health history and workout programming to my day to day stress levels - in order to craft and refine my personal nutrition targets. Katie was always proactive about checking in with me on how my program was going and offering solutions to navigate day-to-day challenges. Katie is always great at creating a safe space for discussing challenges and offering solutions. More recently, Katie has been helping create workout programs designed to fit some unique constraints I have and I’m loving her workout designs!

HIDEF is AMAZING! Ive been getting treatment from Dr. Zach for a couple of months. I injured my lower back, keens and, shoulders badly from a bad fall in Nov last year. Zach is extremely knowledgeable, patient and practical. He customizes my treatment plan and even connects with my personal trainer regarding my condition for workouts. With his help, Im fully recovered and back to the gym compared to not being able to walk a while ago. I plan to continue seeing him for the recovery/treatment after lifting even I dont have injury anymore.

Sean has been great at pushing me to get me on the path to achieve my fitness goals. I have some severe shoulder issues, and he has built a program that challenges me without aggravating my shoulders.

Great staff & facility! Dr. Zach and Mitch are always high energy, positive and encouraging. They take care of their facility and are very careful to make sure all equipment is cleaned before and after use (especially appreciative of this considering the pandemic we are in). I really like that they are located within a gym so there are many different pieces of equipment we can incorporate into my PT sessions. Lots of street parking and easy to find the building!I am recovering from my second ACL/meniscus tear and Dr. Zach has been an outstanding PT from day one. As an athlete who is used to competing at a high level, I am always impressed and appreciative of his ability to make our sessions a mix of both rehabilitation exercises focused on balance, mobility and range of motion as well as working on my strength, conditioning and endurance. He is very knowledgeable and uses his scientific approach to the recovery process to help get me back to my 100%. My knee has been recovering and feeling better and stronger each week and I know it is largely due to the great treatment I receive from HIDEF! Highly recommend, especially for athletes recovering from injuries who want to come back and play competitively again!

I’ve been working with Zach and Mitch for 4 months. I’ve seen significant improvements in my mobility and overall fitness levels, and I’ve managed to undo a lot of the bad habits I developed during the covid lockdowns. Mitch has gone the extra mile by preparing personalized home workouts, which complement our weekly training sessions. Highly recommend!

I have been working out with Mitch for about 2 months and I have seen significant improvements in my bench press. He tailors a workout based on your goals and makes sure to add supplementary exercises that target the whole body. I also received a free PT consultation from Zach because I had a leg injury and was able to tailor a program that didnt make my injury worse.Mitch is very detail oriented and keeps close track of all the timing of the exercises to make sure that you have a rigorous workout. He has a dedicated training space just for you and he has extensive knowledge on the muscle groups and proper form to make sure youre targeting the right muscles properly. Mitch is very friendly and has a great positive attitude. Im grateful to have found him as a trainer and look forward to continuing to work with him to hit my fitness goals.

After the shutdown and closure of my gym back in March, I had lost a bunch of momentum and fell into a rut. I gained weight, and quickly got burnt out with work related stress. When I decided it was time to get back to work and find a personal trainer, I reached out and was so lucky to have Mitch quickly get me set back up with personal training that week. I love the equipment and mostly of all how fun it is to get after it with Mitch leading the way. Ive gained quite a bit of muscle, and dropped 15 lbs in 6 weeks. This comes from Mitchs laser focused system and approach to getting his clients the best results possible. Hes listened to my goals and got me much closer to them in a short amount of time. My energy is back, there is no burn out to speak of. My strength is back and actually stronger than Ive been in 10 years. The workouts as I said are fun and challenging. I look forward to each session. Mitch is the man!

I first met Katie at a crossfit gym in Interbay and asked for her help in zeroing in on my nutrition and fitness goals when I learned of her true passion. I used to follow all different diets: keto, Weight Watchers, X number of calories/day but nothing was sustainable. With Katie I feel like Im still able to eat, I just have a better understanding of WHAT Im putting into my body now. She has always been encouraging, never got down on me - like Id be reprimanded - but would provide examples of what was effecting my outcomes. She genuinely cares and that makes it so easy to talk to her about all facets of my health. I highly recommend her, shes the best!

Mitch, Katie, and Zach are a dream team! Ive had nagging imbalances and posture issues that have been quite painful, and Ive been treated for in various ways for YEARS. I have improved more in just a few weeks than I ever have, and I am completely blown away. Mitchs workouts are amazingly effective, and I never feel over-exerted or strained. But hes pushed me in the best way and showed me I could do things that I wouldve never attempted. I trust his opinion and expertise completely. Ive probably been a problem client for Katie, whos been helping me with nutrition, but shes been SO INCREDIBLE at reframing my perspective, and showing me how to actually live with the changes I want to make. I just started Zachs treatment after 1 eval and am so pumped and excited and already feel better. With the 3 of them, Ive felt stronger, healthier, and more balanced than I thought possible. Phenomenal!

I’ve been working with Mitch for a month and a half. I’m down over 20lbs and my strength, stamina, lung capacity and energy is way up. If you are in the Seattle area I highly recommend HIDEF. They have helped me eat healthier, be more active and build healthier habits. I have no doubts that I will hit my fitness goals working with Mitch.

I cannot recommend Dr. Zach Smith enough. He knows his stuff incredibly well and helps guide you through recovery in the most personal and attentive way. You can tell he truly cares about his patients and wants them to succeed. 10/10 would recommend for anyone.

My wife and I started training 2x weekly with Mitch and the improvement in fitness and strength has been tremendous. It’s a very thoughtful, practical, customized program with just the right amount of pushing. I also started PT work with Zach for an unrelated back injury and it’s great that they can tailor the workout program in partnership with my PT work.

Sean is great. He’s really helped deal with a lot of pain I’ve had for a long time in my shoulders and hips while building strength!

My therapy stopped when Covid hit. It was great to learn that HIDEF provided mobile visits. During my therapy, I have been so impressed with Zach’s knowledge of the body, and the exercises which have really helped me. I have multiple areas of injury and really appreciate Zach’s comprehensive approach. Thanks so much!

I saw Zach at HIDEF roughly a year ago for a groin strain that was limiting my ability to hike for more than a mile. After treatment I was able to start hiking again and recently completed a 7 day Colorado backpacking and mountaineering trip with zero injury. Now I have a new injury I’m not able to see Zach due to distance, and he was quick to make a referral to another college in my area and made the transition smooth.

Mitch has been amazing to work with and has helped me with my strength and fitness. With Zac’s assistance, HiDef also helped me overcome a shoulder injury which has been nagging me for over 25 years! I feel stronger, younger and more flexible. I jump out of bed with fewer aches and pains and my overall energy level is much better. To top it off, Mitch is just a great guy and the best trainer in Seattle!

I have been working with Mitch and I highly recommend working with him to anyone who seeks for a personalized and goal oriented workout structure. He created a program that perfectly align with my goals yet feels different (and fun) every time. He pays great attention every single second of the time we work together, and adjusts the sets based on how my body responds. Additionally, he is super friendly and understanding to listen anything that affects my mood and motivation — all in all he is great and highly recommended!

I started working out with Mitch and HIDEF a few months ago. As a busy working mom it is very important that I have a workout I can do at the gym but also at home for days I dont make it to the gym. Mitch has put together some really great workouts. I appreciate that he changes them approx every six weeks so I am consonantly using new muscle groups and not getting bored. He also makes sure to target the areas I am really trying to concentrate on. Hes a great support and calls regularly to check in with me and see how my workouts are going and also my food/calorie/protein intake. Hes a great guy and I appreciate the time he takes with me to make sure I am getting the support I need. I highly recommend HIDEF. Its not about loosing weight. Its about a lifestyle change that allows you to live your best life. HIDEF is supporting me in my choices to live my best life.

Had to cut my time short with Mitch due to my daughter being born, but he put me on a meal plan for a few months and in that time, I saw more results than I had in years trying to do it on my own. Will definitely be reconnecting with him soon.

A group of friends organized a weekly HIIT class in the park with Mitch and it was so fun! Mitch always had an engaging workout for us that was different each week. We love a good challenge and he adapted the workouts to match our style. It was a great start to the morning and we would definitely work with Mitch and HIDEF again!

I highly recommend Mitch as a client-focused, empathetic, and results-oriented personal trainer. Working with Mitch as a personal trainer has changed my view of working out! When Mitch and I first started working together, I had been feeling burnout from the number of workouts I was doing and the constant push for more. I felt depleted, and I wasn’t experiencing the physical or mental results I expected. And honestly, that didn’t work for my schedule anymore. In my first meeting with Mitch, he was focused on understanding my goals and the coaching style that would be most effective for me. Since then he has tailored every work out and interaction to push me to meet those goals while being my biggest supporter along the way. As a result, I cut back my number of work outs. I have more energy in all the cross training I love to do. I feel stronger than ever, and I am seeing my body change.

Highly rate working with Zach and the HiDef team for your PT needs. They’ve treated and worked with me on an intensive knee rehab program around multiple surgeries, that’s allowed me to recover well and return quickly to a pretty high level of fitness activity.

Zach and Mitch are both amazing at what they do! Zach helped me with some physical therapy I needed and then I continued personal training with Mitch. Zach gave me helpful stretching techniques to do at home and was very honest when it came down to how much physical therapy I needed. He didn’t want me having to pay out of pocket more than absolutely necessary and I greatly appreciated that! Since then I have been working out with Mitch and he brings a lot of fun and encouragement to each workout. I’m not the most physically fit person but he pushes me to do my best while working within my limitations. You can tell that both Zach and Mitch really care for their clients, and I’m grateful for all the work they’ve done with me! I couldn’t recommend them more!

Mitch has been great, each workout I’m dead tired at the end and feeling stronger every week! Started zoom workouts with the new restrictions, minimal equipment and still a great customized workout!

Shout out to their new guy, Justin S! He is kind, professional and super informational on explaining how everything connects, and the cause and effect on the skeletal and muscle system of the body.I went in to get my knee and ankles checked out due to an ongoing pain from trying to get back to parkour. I was stumped what was the origin of the pain since I dont think Im doing anything incorrectly (ex. technique, form, warming up, etc). And guess who used to be a parkour instructor? Justin! Seattle specifically has a small parkour community and it helps wonders knowing a PT who is knowledgeable in the same hobby; they get big clues on things based on their own experience...especially if they were an instructor. He was able to pinpoint my problem right away.The number one thing I appreciated the most was that he video recorded me on my phone doing my prescribed exercises and narrated in the video/guided me on how to do them correctly. As a visual learner myself, that helped tremendously. Now I have something to refer back to conveniently on my phone and I can try these exercises anywhere. Thanks, Justin!!

Me and my partner Michel were tired of being confined to our non-existing home gym during COVID and were looking for some help getting in better shape. We’ve always been quite active, but Katie is taking us to another level. We’re only 5 weeks in and we can already see a difference in our body and strength. She has a lot of patience and isn’t afraid to push us, but always in a safe and reasonable way. Katie makes training fun and we’re always looking forward to training with her! #lovingit

I visited HIDEF to recover from an elbow dislocation injury this year. In just about 3 weeks I could see significant improvements and positive results. My range of motion was almost as good as before my injury (only 1 degree off, which is very good!), I am doing planks, almost complete push ups, and recovered the strength in my entire arm.My therapy with Zach also included education for doing exercises at home and learning how to use different tools like rubber bands. During the session, the therapist listens carefully and focuses on how you are doing the exercises and corrects you as needed. Overall I worked on strengthening and range of motion recovery through manual therapy, neuromuscular education, and therapeutic exercise. The therapist provides all required equipment and also has the flexibility to visit you at your convenient location. He also focuses on recovery from a sports medicine perspective, which is great for everyone even if you are not an athlete.Therapist also adhered to and was very diligent to comply with CDC requirements and covid-19 cleaning procedures.If you are in the Seattle area, I strongly recommend this for your recovery.

HIDEF Seattle is unmatched when it comes to nutrition, fitness and rehab. Zach and Mitch are truly dedicated to making a positive impact on peoples lives and it shows with each personalized program and plan of care they make. Ive enjoyed working with them both and will continue to recommend them to anyone looking to improve their overall fitness/wellness.

Mitch is a great trainer! After taking a break from working out, I was able to regain my strength and change my body. You will see results and have fun with Mitch.

Dr. Zach is fantastic! I’m an endurance runner, yogi, and cyclist, and he’s done an amazing job helping me recover from injuries. After suffering from chronic pain due to a labral tear in my shoulder for nearly a decade, I finally made an appointment with him. I wish I’d called sooner - I experienced relief from the pain after only a few appointments, and I’ve regained full use of my shoulder. He is extremely knowledgeable and professional, and his home treatment plans are easy to follow. In addition to helping with my shoulder, he’s been able to work with me to fix other ailments, such as arthritis in my big toes, an impinged nerve in my neck, and hip alignment issues. I recommend him to all my athlete friends!

HIDEF SEATTLE is the real deal. I highly recommend Mitch and Zach as they are the trifecta of fitness in the Pacific NorthWest. They incorporate nutrition, fitness and functional rehab that is targeted to meet an individuals needs and goals. Ive been working with Mitch for almost a year now, and every session he brings a great deal of diversity to my workouts. He consistently challenges and encourages me to push myself both physically and mentally. I appreciate you guys for continuing to inspire me through my fitness journey!

Working with Mitch and Zach has not only been fun, but has made me healthier, stronger and leaner with more balance and mobility. I started working with Mitch on nutrition and I was skeptical anyone could help me. Ive learned valuable approaches for mindset, calories and food. I was resistance training without progression until I started working with Mitch. He taught me how to put It all together. Then, he noticed my foot pain was impacting my range of motion on squats. So, I went to see Zach for PT which resulted in a surprisingly fast resolution of nagging foot and back pain. Then, I added more sessions with Mitch and am progressing more quickly now. Mitch and Zach have a lot of answers, are fun to work with and are kind and thoughtful. Thanks to the HIDEF team, I have habits and an attitude that serve me well and prepare me for retirement.

Every question I have these guys have an intelligent answer.My wife and I use them for personal training and are getting great results.I also was worried I needed shoulder surgery until I used them for physical therapy. My shoulder is perfect after 3 years of pain.

To anyone in need of professional healing from without and within, Zach, and HIDEF are the best! I was recently in a terrible rear end auto accident that left me with debilitating pain, brain injury, ear ringing, etc. Zach was able to come to our home and has helped me dramatically reduce my pain, increase range of motion and rebuild my strength and balance. He was also able to work out insurance glitches promptly and professionally. I cant say enough and would highly recommend him and their services to others.

I wish I could leave Zach and Mitch more than 5 stars. I’ve used HIDEF for rehab, injury prevention, and nutrition advice, and they far exceeded my expectations each time!

May 2021 review nutrition coaching:After 10 months of COVID society closure, my clothing size went up one notch and I felt my mid-section flabby. I was not sitting around all the time; I was taking 3-4 online fitness classes a week and I seldom overeat, very little junk/processed food in my diet. Why am I not able to keep the shape and weight down? That was where Katie and I started our nutrition journey back in January 2021. I learn so much about science behind eating during the weekly 1-on-1 sessions with Katie. Katie is super knowledgable and always enabling me to find my own success by guiding me and customizing the weekly nutrition goals, instead of prescribing one-size-fits-all meal plans. She was always there to bounce ideas and answer my questions, and it was so much fun and enjoyable thinking about what and how I eat, coming up with the recipes that fit my food preferences and life style, AND see the result. I got back to the pre-COVID shape without starving myself and things are continued to be improving.Thank you so very much, Katie, for being always supportive, sincere and giving me the tools and knowledge that I can carry on for the rest of my life.-----------------------------------June 2020 review on PT and personal training:When my PT got retired and a personal trainer moved from Seattle at the same time, I was desperately looking for a new PT and trainer. Lucky me, I found both in HIDEF. After a few session with Dr. Zach, I started seeing improvement in range of motion of my shoulder in combination with well programed strength training with Mitch. Training sessions are a lot of fun and engaging. Dr. Zach and Mitch are a perfect duo to offer safe, integrated and result-oriented treatment and training for their clients.

They helped me achieved my fitness goals. I was new to the gym and incorrect practices caused me severe pain. Dr. Zach helped me reduce the pain and develop better practices, while Mitch kept me in shape and extended my abilities. They also helped by giving me the tools to grow, such as diet and home training regimes.
