Today’s video is about one of my Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu students who is feeling the “magical power” of the Blue Belt.

All jokes aside, he is having something related to the Blue Belt. He’s seeing some serious jumps in his game.

When I was watching him, he looked way better than he normally did. He’s noticeably becoming more fluid and purposeful.

Even rolling with him he felt super dangerous.

After our roll, I told him he felt like he really Improved. I asked him why he felt that way. He said, “Well, I don’t really feel like I have any pressure on myself lately.”

This is a super interesting thing to hear, as most people who have recently been promoted feel the opposite. They usually feel a massive amount of pressure as a newer, higher, belt rank.

I’ll talk about times I accepted certain uncomfortable situations, let the pressure off myself, and how these things made me perform much better.

Whether it’s BJJ, MMA, Wrestling, Jiu-Jitsu, or anything else you do, today’s topic is an interesting exploration into “AH HA Moments” that tend to come from a more relaxed state (like my recent Blue Belt).

Hopefully, if you’re putting a lot of pressure on yourself, then you found this video helpful.

The post My Student Experienced the Magical Powers of Blue Belt appeared first on jitseasy.

What’s up guys,

So today we’ve got a question from an Ultra Heavyweight Jiu-Jitsu competitor by the name of Dan.

He’s also a Blue Belt who feels very stuck in his Jiu-Jitsu training.

He rarely feels threatened by the White Belts but finds himself getting Wrecked by the other Blue Belts & Purple Belts. This is clearly very frustrating for him.

He’s wondering how he can start to close the gap with some of the mid to higher belts.’

In the video, I’ll talk about how this is the perfect thing to happen now. Blue Belt is one of the belt levels where you’ll have a chance to learn the fastest for many reasons that I’ll go through in this video.

Hopefully, you found this helpful.

Thanks for watching.

The post Effective Strategy for Skill Growth as a BJJ Blue Belt & Beyond appeared first on jitseasy.

Today our question comes from a viewer who got their BJJ Blue Belt in 8 months…

Now, for most of you, 8 months is pretty cool…

for him, it’s not so cool. He sees on the internet that, for most people, a Blue Belt is 1.5-2 years on average, and he feels uneasy about it.

He feels like he may not of had enough time to develop and is getting a bit of imposter syndrome.

He then competed at Blue Belt, lost his first match quick, got embarrassed, and left the competition feeling deflated.

That lingering “boogyman” in his head telling him he’s not ready was validated by that competition telling him that he does not belong.

He’s had a couple weeks off, but coming back he has this overwhelming feeling of anxiety and does not trust his Blue Belt.

He’s asking for some advice on the whole situation.

I got my Blue Belt really quick too (although I was a wrestler) and I’ll kinda tell you how I dealt with this “imposter syndrome” or lack of readiness.

Hopefully you found this video helpful. Thanks for watching!
