    Strong, Inside and Out I Episode 3: What It Really Takes - The Truth About Being a College Female Athlete

    What does it actually feel like to be a college female athlete — not the highlight reel, the real version? In this episode of Strong, Inside and Out, host Dr. Ashley Katzenback, PT, DPT sits down with three current college athletes at three different points in their careers: Julietta Marzot, who just finished her freshman year playing soccer at Boston University (D1); Julia Giampietro, who just wrapped sophomore year playing field hockey at Southern New Hampshire University (D2); and Maddie Ocampo, who just finished junior year playing lacrosse at Middlebury College (D3, NESCAC). Together, they unpack the training demands, the body changes, the identity shifts, and the conversations about fueling and menstrual health that rarely make it into a recruiting conversation — but should.

    Strong, Inside and Out I Episode 2: How to fuel a tournament athlete: hydration, real food, and why energy drinks don't count

    How to fuel a tournament athlete: hydration, real food, and why energy drinks don't count Feat. Stephanie Tarbell · Steel Anchor Nutrition Summer tournament season is almost here — and the cooler you pack might matter more than the extra practice session you squeezed in. In this cooking-show-style episode of Strong, Inside and Out, Dr. Ashley Katzenback, PT, DPT — founder of Cape Concierge Physical Therapy (capeconciergept.com) — teams up with sports nutritionist Stephanie Tarbell of Steel Anchor Nutrition to walk sports parents through exactly what to buy, when to feed it, and how to build a game-day go-bag that actually performs. As a physical therapist, lacrosse coach, and mom of teenage athletes, Dr. Ashley brings a perspective most sports parents don't hear: hydration and fueling are not just performance tools — they are injury prevention tools. Dehydrated, underfueled muscles are the muscles that roll an ankle, tear an ACL, or break down in the second half of a tournament. This is movement health. Together, Ashley and Stephanie break down the three pillars of tournament nutrition: 1. Hydration — why you're already behind if you wait until game day morning, how much sodium actually matters in summer heat, and when a Gatorade beats a fancy electrolyte packet. 2. Carbohydrates — why cutting carbs on tournament day is a mistake, what to eat 1–2 hours before a game versus the 30-minute window, and why white bread is actually the right call here. 3. Recovery — what to put in your athlete the moment the final whistle blows, how to build a recovery dinner, and why chocolate milk is not a joke. They also tackle the myth that refuses to die: energy drinks are not hydration. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that children and adolescents avoid energy drinks altogether — and Ashley and Stephanie explain exactly why, including how to handle the peer pressure conversation without turning it into a fight. The episode wraps with a practical go-bag checklist and a free tournament day grocery list — send a message to capeconciergept.com to grab it.

    Strong, Inside and Out I Episode 1: The Truth About Low Testosterone: What Your Doctor Might Be Missing

    Testosterone levels in men have been declining for decades — and it's not just about aging. In this episode of Strong, Inside and Out, Dr. Ashley Katzenback sits down with Ashley Curl of AgeWell Medical for a frank, clinically grounded conversation about what's actually driving the drop in testosterone, why it's so routinely missed in standard lab work, and what you can do about it. But this episode goes further than most: we also tackle testosterone in women — one of the most underserved and misunderstood topics in women's hormonal health — and why the double standard in how we treat men versus women on this issue deserves a serious look. Whether you've been told your levels are "within normal range" and still don't feel like yourself, or you're a woman navigating perimenopause, fatigue, and low libido without answers, this episode is for you.
