What to Focus On as a New BJJ Blue Belt (Technical Buffet Line)

What you I focus on as a Blue Belt? This was the BJJ question I received from Twitter. Recently one of the viewers received his BJJ Blue Belt and he's not wondering "What now?" What should he focus on to progress. As I share in this video. Ultimately, it would be wise to consult your Brazilian Jiujitsu coach or instructor to determine their requirement for the belt. Because they may be different than mine. One of the beautiful things about BJJ is that it's treated in many cases like an art form. With certain, at times unwritten, rules that govern the system and a self-regulatory aspect to fakers. But ultimately, we are free to sort of go about it as we please. With that said, there is no standardization amongst the whole of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu coaches about what each belt should be exactly. A lot is left to interpretation. But if you were one of my Bjj Blue Belts, as I say in the video, I would jump on the technical buffet line. Now that you have a strong foundation that you built as a BJJ White Belt, it's time to experiment and see the different things that could work for you. Instead of being focused solely on surviving, as is often the objective of white belt. You can now test out all the stuff that's out there. Keep the things you want and discard the options that don't seem to be for you. Which will set you up nicely as a BJJ Purple Belt. Which is where I think people begin to specialize to some degree. The only way you'll know what to specialize in is to test out as much as possible. Also, be careful not to be too worried about the newly acquired target on your back as a Blue Belt. It's no secret that when we roll with higher belts. We judge ourselves partly based on our performance with this higher ranks. So as a new Blue Belt, BJJ White Belts are going to be pushing themselves to do well against you. Make sure you don't get too wrapped up in the need to always win against your jr training partners. Because in order to develop new weapons and test out all of the options. You've got to become ok with failing and making mistakes. It's simply how it is. There's more information about my thoughts as a BJJ Blue Belt in the video. I hope the video is useful to you. And Thomas, thanks for the question brother! -Chewy ----------------- Free Ebook: http://www.chewjitsu.net/focused-jiu-...
