New Brandon Vera Training Video

Figured this would be interesting. YouTube - Brandon Vera May 5, 2008 Training...

Looks like some sort of snorkel training, similar to Wanderlei's.

The use of a snorkel during training, is it pretty much the same idea as wearing a gas mask while doing sprints?

Goth: Si, restricts how much air you can take in.

Certainly looks less juryrigged than the snorkel.

Burpees with no pushup? Booooo!!!! However, I don't do burpees with a snorkel on either...

What's up with the dude in the background bouncing the ball at the 2:27 mark? He looks "special".

I think with the burpees he's going for more of a sprawl in the drop. I do it that way too, sometimes. Easier, but more sport-specific (obviously).

He's setting up his kicks really weird. I'm sure if I was doing his training i wouldn't be able to lift my leg, but it just looks funny.
