My russians always go through slow periods in early spring. I don't think a basking spot in the low 80s is going to put him into hibernation mode. But boosting the temps and giving him a soak will probably help. Just realize they don't follow a set pattern every day - they are still responding to environmental cues and will change with the indoor and outdoor conditions.
