Judo: Competition Preparation: an Olympians guide

If you are a beginner or intermediate Judoka looking at competing then this manual is a good start. I discuss various topics such as tapering for the competition, weighing in, rehydration methods as well as what I do to warm up and mentally get my head in the game. I also discuss the strategies I put in place to stop my family and friends pestering me (on competition day) as well as the need to reflect on your performance in order to continually improve as a Judoka.
