If you cannot make the commitment and follow the training program then maybe the RTC Lethbridge is not for you. The training requirements are based on the volume that is needed for each age group so they will be able to have the training habits needed to be an international athlete.
Note: If there is conflicts with your schedule and the RTC schedule we need to sit down and find away make the program work for you together. (I/we need information of why you cannot make trainings – school, work, etc – if there are too many conflicts then maybe the RTC is not for you)
CLARIFICATION:
If you are not part of the RTC as if September 16, 2016 you are not eligible to participate in RTC trainings/events but you can still be part of the provincial team, provincial team weight training days and normal Lethbridge Judo Club trainings.

Fluids for Athletes
Fluids are important for all athletes! Why? Dehydration reduces aerobic exercise performance and makes exercise seem harder. Athletes who are dehydrated are not able to stay as cool during exercise and may develop heat illness.
