Algerian boxers continue Rio prep through Ramadan

Wednesday, June 29 2016 by SNTV
  • Algerian boxers are pressing on with their preparations for the Rio Olympics in the fasting month of Ramadan.

    SOUNDBITE: (Algerian Arabic) Hafid Benchablat, Algerian boxer:

    "As you see we are pressing on with our preparations during the holy month of Ramadan here in Algiers. Before that we were in Cuba. Everything is going well despite the difficulties of fasting. We are doing our duty and hope to win a medal in the Olympic Games."

    SOUNDBITE: (Algerian Arabic) Hafid Benchablat, Algerian boxer:

    "There is a big difference in our daily schedule in Ramadan compared to normal time. The training is different, we prepare ourselves very early at 7am. Then we have sparring sessions in the afternoon. Also we need special vitamins. While observing fasting we train carefully and we focus on the evening's session. We'll do our best to get something from Rio."
