To start, hold the center of your jiu jitsu belt against your belly button, making sure both ends are of the same length.
Wrap the ends of the belt around your waist, crossing them at the back. Ensure that the left side is on top.
Bring the ends forward and cross them over your belly, making an "X" shape.
Take the left end of the belt and pass it underneath the right end, forming a loop in the process.
Insert the left end of the belt through the loop created in the previous step. Pull it tight to secure the knot.
Adjust the belt so that it sits comfortably on your waist, with the ends hanging evenly. Make any necessary adjustments to ensure a snug fit.
A: The belt should be tied snugly, but not so tight that it restricts your movement or breathing. You should be able to insert two fingers between your waist and the belt.
A: The ends of the belt should be of equal length, with some practitioners preferring them to hang just below the knee. However, the length is a matter of personal preference and may vary.
A: It is recommended to wash your jiu jitsu belt regularly to maintain hygiene and prevent odors. Follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer for the best care of your belt.
A: Simply follow the same steps to tie your belt. However, when wrapping it around your waist, ensure that the colored stripe is positioned on the side you prefer.
A: It is generally not recommended to iron your jiu jitsu belt as it may damage the fabric or any patches attached to it. Instead, allow it to air dry after washing.
