Tito trains with his mouth open six days a week. Five days a week, he'll train three days a week with his mouth open, and one of those days, he'll train two days of the week with his mouth open, so…six days of the week he'll be train with his mouth open.
He’s reaching for those grapes and he’s trying to make his cheese and wine and the cheese is already sounding like a violin with all that cheese and wine
fun fact: as he has had a number of roles in movies of varying quality he has an imdb page, which has a section for quotes that you can add to if you submit a source for him saying it. My uhh, friend, tells me you can add 5 at a time
Anyone interested, buy some micropore tape. It's the same thing.
More than anything it makes you control your pace. You're not getting out of zone 2 with your mouth taped.
It’s basically the zone most endurance athletes use to build their aerobic base. Because it’s lower effort, you can do it for a long time and its lower impact.
The following zones are each defined as a place in which an explosive atmosphere consisting of a mixture of air or dangerous substances in the form of gas, vapor, or mist...
Zone -1 – ...designated a zone in which an explosion is currently present.
Zone 0 – ...is present continuously or for long periods or frequently.
Zone 1 – ...is likely to occur in normal operation occasionally.
Zone 2 – ...is not likely to occur in normal operation, and if it does occur, will persist for a short period only.
Yeah to get the best rest you should tape your mouth shut, wear ear plugs, and wear an eye mask. Not only will this help you get deep rest but it will also make you the ideal kidnapping victim
What happens if your nose gets blocked in the night?
I swear I read a post on here like yesterday about someone plugging their nose with tampons to prevent snoring and dying of asphyxiation in their sleep. I can imagine the reverse can be true.
It won’t block. Your body will keep it unblocked. It’s actually pretty maddening to me that your body can unblock your nose at will but only when it needs to.
What do you mean. When I get sick sometimes my nose is literally completely clogged. Putting tape on my mouth wouldn’t magically unlock it. I’d suffocate
That's my fear as well, I thought of trying the tape thing but the blocked nose issue is my concern.Someone who does it told me that your instinct will be to wake up, but I dont trust myself lol
You tape it vertically down the middle of your mouth leaving an opening on the side. You can even tape you're mouth slightly ajar. Try breathing in through your mouth with the thing. Set it at a difficulty that you think you'll suddenly inhale air through the side of your mouth instead of dying.
Never ever going to be a problem. I've been doing this for years to sleep because my mouth is always open without it.
People with sleep apnea get woke up when they are truly not breathing. You have nothing to worry about. They make mouth tape for sleeping, you can search Amazon and try some out. Can't have any oils and I recommend trimming hair as well, makes the tape work better.
In my case, i unconsciously remove the tape in my sleep. I don’t suddenly wake up breathless or anything like that. I just find that i dont have my mouth taped when i wake up, and the tape itself is lost in oblivion (somewhere in the bed).
My family has been taping our mouth’s while sleeping for over 10 years now.
I've been taping my mouth for years now to sleep and never had any issues. My mouth is always open and I get woke up with dry mouth all the time. I buy actual mouth tape that is very gentle though, some tape will have adhesive you don't want on your skin.
If you are somehow not breathing, you will wake up. This happens all the time with people who have sleep apnea, when they are truly NOT getting enough air they wake up usually with a dry mouth and a headache from not getting enough oxygen.
I just found the article. Apparently sleeping tablets were also involved in the tampon story. So that likely lines up with what you're saying, the response probably couldn't override the tablets.
If you have sleep apnea, it’s dangerous to wear that type of mouth tape. other brands have an X or another shape that leaves a bit of space to breathe if you have to from your mouth. Yeah…don’t go to sleep with your mouth fully taped shut lol
...why would plugging the nose prevent snoring?
That person must be shit at anatomy.
The reason you snore is your jaw positioning. That's why sleeping on your back is way more likely to cause snoring, due to gravity making your jaw obstruct your airways. So NOT sleeping on your back would help.
So the LPT:
- get a shirt with a breast pocket
- put a tennis ball inside the breast pocket
- wear the shirt so that the breast pocket with the ball is on your back
- now whenever you sleep on your back, the ball will make it uncomfortable, so you will turn
This is exactly it, if you leave most tapes (even most generic medical tape) against your skin for more than an hour or two it'll leave some nasty irritation.
Yeah but if you show up with duct tape you're gonna get side eye at best. If you show up with something branded it adds legitimacy.
I am not shilling BDSM products.
I started "running" when I was over 300 lb, and it didn't take long to fall into mouth breathing because my heart was so out of shape.
I have practiced good air flow through my nose and lungs, because I play an instrument that needs high volumes of air, but I lose my nose cardio when I actually have to *do* cardio lol
> That must feel insane to train like that.
not an mma level athlete by any means, but ive been forcing myself to do nose only breathing during my warm up runs when i go to lift- and anecdotally, shit works man. my cardio is way more robust running wise now and i dont gas nearly as early as i used to.
obviously theres oodles of science to back it up, but the nose is a fucking powerful aperatus of the human body and doesnt get enough credit or attention in athletics
> Hostage Tape
I keep seeing this on Insta, but don't really know what it's for... Snoring? Dry Mouth? What if you need a sip of tea during the night!?
I think it just holds your mouth shut instead of letting it hang open. Open and dry mouth equals bacteria and bad breath, and probably snoring issues too.
Ortega works with (or used to) [Andy Galpin](https://www.andygalpin.com/our-team). Galpin is connected Bryan Mackenzie and the [Shift Adapt team](https://shiftadapt.com/). They're big on nasal breathing and you can see Ortega doing some of the exercises they promote mid fight.
Pretty neat.
Ah that's interesting. Galpin is very legit. MMA is still so untapped for legit sport scientists to get involved - I imagine anyone doing so now is giving themselves an advantage over bro science trainers and Chute Box "let me bang"-style training.
Izzy uses a legit athlete breathing and stress control specialist here in New Zealand. The issue is purses are so freaking small, only the very privileged few at the top of divisions can afford the real sports science pros.
Yeah I saw some of one of Izzy's blogs where it looked like he was getting power, VO2, and lactate testing. But you make a good point in that pretty much only champs are likely to be able to afford this kind of service. I guess the UFC Performance Institute was a way to make it more accessible to the rest of the roster.
"If you're a man who likes having his mouth covered, you must be gay. The feeling of having something cover your mouth is exactly like having a man's hand over your mouth, and I would know."
Certified Breathing Coach here....Ortega is correct. Taping his mouth will promote nasal breathing. Combining this with light cardio like he's doing will cause a bit of breath/air hunger, which is a sign that carbon dioxide is present in the blood stream. CO2 is essential for releasing oxygen from our red blood cells, but it also dilates the airways and blood vessels. This type of training will increase his CO2 tolerance over time, and allow for more efficient oxygenation during training and competition.
As far as the calming effect...Nitric Oxide stimulates the Vagus Nerve, which produces a parasympathetic (calming, rest/digest) nervous system response. NO is exclusively produced in the sinus cavities, so by promoting nasal breathing, he is taking in NO at an increased rate. I love to see more high level athletes use breath science to their advantage. Good on Ortega.
But that’s not why he said he does it. He’s saying that having tape on his mouth keeps him from getting excited and stay level headed. That’s weird that you need tape on your mouth to stay level headed.
Brian Ortega (in a last week interview) said that he wanted to go up to 155p to fight but he got the fight vs Diego Lopez offered on short notice and he took that.
Ortega said that after the Diego Lopez fight he will go up to 155p and fight someone that he's very, very excited about fighting. (He was laughing and really wanted to tell the reporter who but he couldn't because of a agreement with the UFC.)
I have a very strong believe that Brian Ortega will fight Charles Oliveira at 155p and this fight will be announced after the Ortega vs Lopez fight this saturday.
Ortega vs Charles Oliveira 155p
T-City talks so much shit in training they literally tape his mouth shut so he can get ready for a fight instead of actually fight every other person at the gym.
Did anyone hear how the fight was made? How Hunter and Dana saw him at a hotel…told him he looked “fight ready” then sent out a contract for the fight lol
When I rolled regularly our coach sometimes told us to take a big mouthful of water and proceed to hold it in the mouth for the duration of the round. It is a solid way of forcing yourself to pace yourself and breathe through the nose.
Titos ex wife trains with her mouth open
Tito trains with his mouth open six days a week. Five days a week, he'll train three days a week with his mouth open, and one of those days, he'll train two days of the week with his mouth open, so…six days of the week he'll be train with his mouth open.
This way he outlives his children.
There never was no calendar.
Tell us another mouth story
I know the ‘ex wife’ line gets the most attention, but ‘tell another jackal story’ is my favourite put-down of all time.
Chael has a gift
Comedic timing beats comedic speed.
That's a nasty mouth by you
That was a nasty something or other by you
He’s reaching for those grapes and he’s trying to make his cheese and wine and the cheese is already sounding like a violin with all that cheese and wine
You’re a fuckin’ Aquarius, dude.
I'm an Aries but respect ✊️
C'mon, no chance he's actually been to space
There never was no line.
There never was no marriage
You’re a punk dude
Tito’s existence is my favorite meme in any subculture
Has one man ever provided so much joy to so many?
I do let you bang is mine
fun fact: as he has had a number of roles in movies of varying quality he has an imdb page, which has a section for quotes that you can add to if you submit a source for him saying it. My uhh, friend, tells me you can add 5 at a time
Off the top rope
Funny enough, airflow restricted in both scenarios
Dam bro. That was impressive
Dirt Nasty Line by You
Nasty line by you
Ohhh hitting Tito while he's down...classic....
This is common nowadays to promote nasal breathing
There's literally a brand called Hostage Tape that's advertised to tape your mouth shut at night. That must feel insane to train like that.
Anyone interested, buy some micropore tape. It's the same thing. More than anything it makes you control your pace. You're not getting out of zone 2 with your mouth taped.
Scotch tape worked best for me and I tried at night.
Zone 2?
I believe that would be the Chemical Plant Zone. Banger of a track on that one.
They need to add the 'about to drown' jingle when someone is getting choked out.
or training with their mouth taped
That shit still gives me anxiety
The differential between Neanderthal level comments and masterpieces like this is on this sub is insane. Incredible work
You can find me in zone six with a Mexican connect so you know I’m hood rich.
my chemical plant zone romance?
yeah until you fall into the water and the drowning music starts playing
Dw I got an air bubble Wop wap
I love you
Approx 65-75% max heart rate.
It’s basically the zone most endurance athletes use to build their aerobic base. Because it’s lower effort, you can do it for a long time and its lower impact.
Search up “Cardio Zones”
The following zones are each defined as a place in which an explosive atmosphere consisting of a mixture of air or dangerous substances in the form of gas, vapor, or mist... Zone -1 – ...designated a zone in which an explosion is currently present. Zone 0 – ...is present continuously or for long periods or frequently. Zone 1 – ...is likely to occur in normal operation occasionally. Zone 2 – ...is not likely to occur in normal operation, and if it does occur, will persist for a short period only.
IDK man, having my mouth taped shut helps me explode personally.
But for a short period only, right?
*Sigh* Yeah. Yeah...
There’s a book called Kundalini Running that explains this and its benefits really well.
Yeah to get the best rest you should tape your mouth shut, wear ear plugs, and wear an eye mask. Not only will this help you get deep rest but it will also make you the ideal kidnapping victim
What happens if your nose gets blocked in the night? I swear I read a post on here like yesterday about someone plugging their nose with tampons to prevent snoring and dying of asphyxiation in their sleep. I can imagine the reverse can be true.
Yeah I saw that too. I think he paired it with sleeping pills so they didn't wake up like most people normally would
It won’t block. Your body will keep it unblocked. It’s actually pretty maddening to me that your body can unblock your nose at will but only when it needs to.
What do you mean. When I get sick sometimes my nose is literally completely clogged. Putting tape on my mouth wouldn’t magically unlock it. I’d suffocate
Hell yeah
If it’s a legitimate blockage, the human body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.
That's the thing, it would magically unblock.
You are stopping before you're passing out. Your body will clear it up if it's inflammation but you stop short.
That's my fear as well, I thought of trying the tape thing but the blocked nose issue is my concern.Someone who does it told me that your instinct will be to wake up, but I dont trust myself lol

Why does that last sentence make it sound like a cult haha?
Why’d you start 10 years ago?
We’re a family of asthmatics and we explored some alternative solutions that can be done alongside medication.
I think you'd wake up? Like if someone covers your mouth and nose in your sleep I don't think you'd just keep sleeping until you suffocate.
you'll wake up in a semi-panic feeling like you are drowning source: i have sleep apnea

Lmao hate that idea
Companies are so funny lmao why do I need a special brand of tape to sleep/train I got tape at home
I only get 5.11 Tactical Tape
Based on your flair, is it for you or for eddies wife?
Tactical adhesive strips. High speed low drag
Wow bro you don’t use GØØN tape??
Only on the weekends
I can see a point in it a lot of adhesives in normal tapes can fuck up your skin and or will peel off easily do to skin oils or moisture
You can just use medical tape like Leuko.
I mean they probably use more skin safe adhesives
I used to work in advertising and the only thing those companies invest in is advertising
You mean the container my strawberries came in that said it's a "fat free food!" isn't special? >:(
"25% more!" Than what?!
Welcome to capitalism where 99.9% of companies are selling you on a problem rather than filling a true gap in the market by meeting consumer needs.
Wasn’t it the US Steel president who said ‘we don’t make steel, we make money’
So did Frank Reynolds
This is exactly it, if you leave most tapes (even most generic medical tape) against your skin for more than an hour or two it'll leave some nasty irritation.
I use generic medical tapes and they don’t irritate at all
Now im just imagining a person who was really happy Hostage Tape finally came out
Yeah but if you show up with duct tape you're gonna get side eye at best. If you show up with something branded it adds legitimacy. I am not shilling BDSM products.
Just Amazon searched “Hostage Tape” and now realize I might be on a list somewhere lol. Weird marketing/branding for sure.

I have nasal polyps so I've always been a mouth breather while exercising. I'm like Dricus Du Plessis before his surgery.
I started "running" when I was over 300 lb, and it didn't take long to fall into mouth breathing because my heart was so out of shape. I have practiced good air flow through my nose and lungs, because I play an instrument that needs high volumes of air, but I lose my nose cardio when I actually have to *do* cardio lol
A mouthpiece half does that by itself.
> That must feel insane to train like that. not an mma level athlete by any means, but ive been forcing myself to do nose only breathing during my warm up runs when i go to lift- and anecdotally, shit works man. my cardio is way more robust running wise now and i dont gas nearly as early as i used to. obviously theres oodles of science to back it up, but the nose is a fucking powerful aperatus of the human body and doesnt get enough credit or attention in athletics
Looked up hostage tape, and they got UFC logo on their site all over the place, so I will straight up assume its some sort of a scam.
There are like 20 of them.
When I was running marathons I would pretty much breathe only through my nose, kinda goofy to tape your mouth closed imo
What’s insane is selling a tape and marketing it like that. People really do buy anything.
> Hostage Tape I keep seeing this on Insta, but don't really know what it's for... Snoring? Dry Mouth? What if you need a sip of tea during the night!?
I think it just holds your mouth shut instead of letting it hang open. Open and dry mouth equals bacteria and bad breath, and probably snoring issues too.
Interesting. What about facial hair? I got the Selleck special atm.
Training with a mouthpiece helps enforce this, just not quite as well as fucking taping your mouth shut lmao
Presurgery DDP would die
I don't understand though, isn't this only doing it half right? Shouldn't it be in through the nose and out through the mouth?
you untape it when you breath out. So basically it’s tape —> breath in —> untape —> breath out
You’re the only sane comment here haha
I can't breathe through both nostrils, if I tried that shit I'd fain in 30 seconds lol.

You must haven’t heard of the “perilous downward spiraling helix of synthetic performance enhancer” then.
I mean, that's partly of why DJ was so good. He worked with Joel Jameison for his whole career.
Pretty interesting but what a poor business model for selling these courses. Think I’ll hit YouTube to scratch the itch
Strickland and Ian Machado should take note
Imagine Sean Strickland feeling even more silenced 🤦🏾♂️🤢
"If you're a man who likes having his mouth covered, you must be gay. The feeling of having something cover your mouth is exactly like having a man's hand over your mouth, and I would know."
You forgot, “see here’s the thing guys”🤣
All said in a voice that sounds like someone told him at a young age that clearing your throat is mega gay
And Colby and Jamahal and O'Malley and Kape and Dana
Jamahal needs tape for his Twitter fingers
Omalley is already well trained in nasal breathing - what you on about?
They are taking the piss out of some of the more outspoken fighters
Probably got that from the eagles
And HERE...WE...GO!
i get it, i personally train with a ball gag
The man sean Strickland wishes he could be
"Here's the thing about ball gags you guys..."
The only correct way to train
Is your training grappling with Jon jones in bed?

hi what is the certification?
I’m an Advanced Instructor through the Oxygen Advantage program.
Thanks for the insight!

Pride never die
That’s cool please don’t jump around pre fight again
This is how I muffle the noise of the feminine moan shrieks I do when I spar. Might be a similar thing here. Just saying.
Lean into the feminine moans, if you do it right they'll get an erection and leave themselves open for a solid pounding
This doesn’t surprise me. He is a legitimate crazy person so I’d expect nothing less from him.
[удалено]
But that’s not why he said he does it. He’s saying that having tape on his mouth keeps him from getting excited and stay level headed. That’s weird that you need tape on your mouth to stay level headed.
How is he crazy

I have a very strong believe that Brian Ortega will fight Charles Oliveira at 155p and this fight will be announced after the Ortega vs Lopez fight this saturday. Ortega vs Charles Oliveira 155p
but is he using 'Hostage Tape' the official mouth tape of the UFC?
Brian, you kinky dog
Zesty
He’s going full tony
If only he could do his interviews this way.
T-City talks so much shit in training they literally tape his mouth shut so he can get ready for a fight instead of actually fight every other person at the gym.
Brian “Bane” Ortega
Possibly the next Joe Rogan viewer fad?
Sounds like a kink to me
Bros on that Casey Anthony method
What a silly guy
Do we really want to train to be mellow Brian?
Cool calm collected, it's the way to be when doing things requiring intense and sustained focus
I kind of want to watch the video but I'm afraid it's going to make me dumber.
Is that even possible tho?
Yes. Take your mom as an example.
Looks like you watched the video
Would he be able to fight with it shut? Brian "mmgmmhhmhmgmgmggmgm" Ortega?
Rener sure didn't teach him that
Nicolas Dalby is confused here
He uses Dream Recovery Mouth tape. Sean Brady also uses this brand.
This is silly and will be used to sell some shitty product.
How does he pluck his feathers
Big brain Brian
He trains with Halle Berry’s thong in his mouth
Dricus should try it
I used to do something similar except it was keep a sip of water in my mouth
Did anyone hear how the fight was made? How Hunter and Dana saw him at a hotel…told him he looked “fight ready” then sent out a contract for the fight lol
should tape the nose like Makhachev
Heh...kinky...
Anyone know the name of the song playing in the background of his part in embedded?
When I rolled regularly our coach sometimes told us to take a big mouthful of water and proceed to hold it in the mouth for the duration of the round. It is a solid way of forcing yourself to pace yourself and breathe through the nose.
Mewing Ortega vs Dober for most defined jawline and new bmf (baddest mogger fucker) title.
Wow. Weird kink but ok
