What would be: Best consumed on a sweaty day spent on a tiring trail? Easy to prepare around a campfire? Nutritional for the next leg ahead? Edsel Segovia, Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist and a National Strength and Conditioning Certified Personal Trainer (CSCS, NSCA-CPT) started things off in the challenge with a brief talk on…
