From Assuming Command: We spoke with Ashley about some steps tactical athletes can take to utilize the same information in their careers. Ashley highlighted the importance of training and maintaining your body to cope with the physical aspects of being a first responder. She also discussed the importance of having comprehensive labs drawn regularly. Even though we can’t all hire Ashley, she does have an ebook available on her website, www.ashleybesecker.com, that contains information on what labs to ask for, what supplements to take and how much, and macronutrient breakdowns. She also recommends tracking health markers using wearable technology to stay ahead of health issues that may be developing but not creating any current indicators.
