Why is there a stereotype of purple belts always skipping the warm up and why is it completely true? Who is at fault here? Is it jiu jitsu traditional warm ups? Is it the purple belts for getting lazy? Or could it be the coaches not holding them accountable? Maybe it's all of these things. We are putting this episode out as a warning to the purple belts who skip warmups. You are only hurting your future self by doing so. Maybe your warmup is the same thing everyday and is outdated. But maybe you can help change that so you and your buddies aren't broken when you finally get your black belts.

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
