How strong is a black belt?

The belt itself is pretty strong, made of silk layered over a cotton core, with eight or ten rows of stitching. A black belt student might also be very strong; although there is no particular strength requirement for the black belt test, training toward a black belt results in increased strength. It should also be remembered that although you may have earned a black belt, you will not maintain your strength unless you maintain your training.
