Russian Tortoise Hibernation

It is currently summer but I have already decided i do not want to hibernate my tortoise for the winter. I have found conflicting thought on the topic though. So far I found it to be conclusive that you should definitely not hibernate your tortoise unless it is in good health. I also found you should not hibernate it the first five years you have owned it unless it has been hibernated in the past. One should be experienced or at least have had well researched how to hibernate a tortoise. I have read that there are no ill effects of not hibernating a tortoise as long as you are able to keep it warm in the winter.
