I'm 46 now. I was white for 2yrs. Got my blue. Got a stripe 2.5 yrs later. Just got my purple belt last week after almost 6 yrs at blue. I went from blue one stripe straight to purple. The mere fact I just got my purple after almost 8yrs I feel overwhelmed now and feel brain fog. It was like as soon I quit caring for awhile couple years about even advancing bam I'm being advanced. I liked my faded almost white blue belt with one stripe and felt comfortable there. Now I feel like more is expected of me. 😢
Many of us feel like this at purple. Like someone once said: “grow into your belt”. So we need to relax and just accept we will grow into our purple belt
Musumeci has become one of my favorite jiu-jitsu competitors and has instructional the are incredible! Still I favor Danaher's instructionals but wouldn't be surprised if Musumeci in the future could rival Danaher too👊
So here's a question for all you higher belts. 4 stripe blue here. I have my go to stuff but I still enjoy trying out new stuff. Should I continue to keep trying new stuff as a purple or spend more time refining my style? Thanks in advance.
Mikey: At purple belt you know who you are. You know what style of game you like to play.
Me as a purple belt: *Puts white belt back on*.
me as a blue belt: My game is to be as lazy as possible and hold people in halfguard.
Me as blue belt: give Coach the belt back after 3 years
i can say with confidence that as a purple belt i am mimicking everything that bernardo puts out lol

No Joke I played bernardo’s half and deep half game as a blue belt and now I’m studying mikey’s DLR and crab ride game as a purple. Thx so much guys
Look how diplomatic bernardo is
Im a purple belt and this is spot on.
Thank you Mikey!

If mclovin was a blackbelt, he’d be musumeci

Fantastic video!OSS!🤙🏻🥋😎
Good advice.
I got my purple belt right before the pandemic, then we had a baby. Is there a minus white belt?
Hahaha
Not me, I’m a purple belt that is still trying to figure out who I am and what type of game I play.
I know who I am on top, but when I’m on bottom I’m still figuring that out… so you aren’t alone.
Please mike consider doing a portuguese intructional for bjjfanatics BR it would be awesome

Nothing work as a white belt lol.
I remember always feeling that way. You get taught techniques and they never worked in rolls. 😆
