Training for Black Belt Certification
By Martin Raffol
You can accumulate many belts as a karate student, but the black belt requires mastery of numerous forms and intense physical training, making it
your most difficult test to date.
You can prepare for your black belt test by starting a training regimen three to four months in advance of your test. Alternate weeks between aerobic
and strength training exercises, such as crunches, running, and free weights.
Begin each day of exercise with a warm-up period before beginning your moves. You can then run through the forms and moves on which you expect
to be tested. Some of your peers are likely preparing for their black belt tests on or around your test date. Consider organizing training sessions where
participants can help each other learn difficult moves and engage in sparring sessions.
