Below are five tips to help you get a purple belt in BJJ faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Train BJJ Consistently&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To earn your BJJ purple belt faster, you must train consistently. Not only training consistently, but also a high volume of training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aim to try and train every day that your gym has a class if you can. A high volume of consistent training will help you earn your purple belt faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!-- Ezoic - Blog Place 6 - incontent_6 -->\n<div id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-190\"> <\/div>\n<!-- End Ezoic - Blog Place 6 - incontent_6 -->\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Compete As A Blue Belt In BJJ Competitions Set<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Regularly competing is a great idea to improve your BJJ skills and show that you&#8217;re at a purple belt level. Try to compete every month to two months if you&#8217;re healthy and want to get better faster. Doing this might even earn you a purple belt in two years or less after receiving your blue belt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">An Example For Lower Belts In The Gym&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s not just your attendance and skill level but also how you carry yourself in the gym. You have to be an example for the lower belts in the gym and help them improve their skills, just like the higher belts did when you were a white belt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!-- Ezoic - Blog Post Place 7 - incontent_7 -->\n<div id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-191\"> <\/div>\n<!-- End Ezoic - Blog Post Place 7 - incontent_7 -->\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Help Out Around The Gym<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You have to treat your Jiu-Jitsu gym like your second home. That means offering to help around the gym when your instructor needs help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This could be helping assist kids&#8217; classes or even as simple as cleaning the mats. Helping around your gym will show that you have the character to deserve to wear a BJJ purple belt.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Focus On Your BJJ Recovery &amp; Not Getting Injured<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Since it takes a while to earn a purple belt in BJJ, you really have to focus on training properly. You should be more intelligent and more technical when you train so that you don&#8217;t sustain an injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you get banged up during training, the best thing you can do is focus on your <a href=\"https:\/\/fightersvault.com\/recovery-for-mma-fighters\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">recovery and rest<\/a>. That way, you&#8217;ll never miss training for long periods of time and be able to train consistently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!-- Ezoic - Blog post place 8 - incontent_8 -->\n<div id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-192\"> <\/div>\n<!-- End Ezoic - Blog post place 8 - incontent_8 -->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5 Reasons You Won&#8217;t Get A BJJ Purple Belt<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/fightersvault.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/3-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"purple belt in bjj\" class=\"wp-image-15243\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fightersvault.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/3-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fightersvault.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/3-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fightersvault.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/3-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fightersvault.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/3.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>On the flip side, there are many things you can do that will result in you not earning your BJJ purple belt. Below are five things that will prolong or even prevent you from reaching your purple belt in BJJ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Not Training BJJ Consistently&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu students train less frequently once they get promoted to blue belt, going from training every day to barely training at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re not training consistently as a blue belt, don&#8217;t expect to earn a purple belt on time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!-- Ezoic - Blog Post Plave 9 - incontent_9 -->\n<div id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-193\"> <\/div>\n<!-- End Ezoic - Blog Post Plave 9 - incontent_9 -->\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Showing Up Late&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You must show up for class on time to show that you&#8217;re a serious Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu student. Not strolling in after warm-ups like purple belts are known for doing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being habitually late to class will show that you don&#8217;t really care and probably won&#8217;t get promoted in the average time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Not Being An Example For Lower Belts&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There&#8217;s a tendency for some students to gain a bit of an ego once they become blue belts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being a bad example for lower belts will have negative consequences. Don&#8217;t expect to be promoted if you aren&#8217;t a good teammate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!-- Ezoic - incontent_10 - incontent_10 -->\n<div id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-194\"> <\/div>\n<!-- End Ezoic - incontent_10 - incontent_10 -->\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Getting Injured&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is not without its dangers, and injuries do happen. Some of which are more severe and take you off the mat for an extended period of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, you&#8217;ll have to wait longer to get a purple belt if this happens to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Quitting At Blue Belt<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Blue belt is the rank where more students quit than any other rank. It&#8217;s a challenging period in your BJJ journey that makes many give up training altogether.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Try to keep a positive attitude, or you might become another statistic and quit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!-- Ezoic - Blog post place 11 - incontent_11 -->\n<div id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-195\"> <\/div>\n<!-- End Ezoic - Blog post place 11 - incontent_11 -->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Train Hard &amp; You&#8217;ll Earn Your BJJ Purple Belt<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The best thing you can do to earn a BJJ purple belt is train hard and train consistently. Be sure also to enjoy the process and not worry about when you&#8217;ll get promoted. When it&#8217;s your time, you&#8217;ll earn your BJJ purple belt and deserve it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you enjoyed our article on how to get a purple belt in BJJ, share it by hitting the button below.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In this article, we discuss how to get a purple belt in BJJ.
