Do you think you will get a black belt?

[Headkicktoleg]

I think I will. I'm a purple for a few years. I think I'm brown belt worthy because I roll pretty even with browns. My wife supports me doing jiu jitsu!

 

[Adjaar]

Of course! I started when I was 18. Now I'm 24 and a purple belt. No intention of stopping

I have been posting here for more than half a decade, so i probably will, eventually.

 

[PointyShinyBurn]

Probably not again.

 

[EGDM]

No. Retired at brown due to injury.

 

[sb413197]

I think so, yes. Haven't done it for awhile due to injury and then COVID but I got vaccinated yesterday and am planning to return before long

 

[biscuitsbrah]

I hope so. I’m a blue belt with 1 stripe. Haven’t put on the gi in a couple years due to mma but all great coaches seem to have black belts so I think in the future it’s gonna be more of a priority.

 

[Nnedd]

Got mine this year.

Brown belt here. No idea. Just hoping for this pandemic to be over and start training again. Wondering what my skill level will be like when I finally am able to get to the mats. Scary to think how much I might have lost over the past 10 months.

No clue, currently a 2 stripe blue, don’t live close to the black that gave me my blue belt. There’s a black belt that’s closer that I train with occasionally, might jump ship but this black belt grades way harder

I've had a few breaks and although I came back "slower" (everything seemed to be moving in high speed my first few rolls), it comes back. Particularly if you've been thinking about BJJ and looking at videos etc - I actually find I come back thinking about things in a different way and a bit more creative sometimes.

I'm due for my 2nd degree in BJJ. Recently started training Judo to mix it up a little, I'd like to be black belt level there too.

 

[kjg1672]

I'm a brown belt and started training 13 years ago. I've trained only sporadically since March, but I plan to keep pushing ahead to black. If for no other reason, I want my kids to look up to me and see that I accomplished something.

Is @Nnedd one of the few black belts in this forum?

there are a bunch of black belts on f12

 

[Bigboot]

Got mine this year only took me 13yrs!

 

[KikoJones]

Just got my Brown after almost 8 years of consistent training. I'm guessing another 3-4 years.

 

[becoh]

I got my brown belt the end of last year, I don't feel that I deserved it at all. I'd prefer to go back to purple to be honest.

 

[cugnao]

I am purple belt 2 stripes after nearly 8 years, maybe in 3 - 4 years I will get my black belt

I'm sure I'll get it but to do a lifetime of inconsistencies ill be in my late 50s
