I do not really agree with it. Most of our wet static apnea training sessions (1hr) consist of two different tables, combined with other exercises, and as far as I know many other freediving clubs in France use to practice it in similar way.
What is really important is listening to your body, going out soon enough, and pushing the envelope only in small steps. Do not hyperventilate (it means no deep breaths, and also no purge breaths) when doing tables. And, of course, never ever do wet static apnea without having an experienced freediver supervising you in contact (giving you taps or clicks and pulling you immediately out if you fail to response). Having just a guard or a friend watching you is definitely completely insufficient. There is no way they can see if you are still conscious without the signaling, so you could die or suffer deep hypoxic damage or inhale water, in better case, in front of their watching eyes. It wouldn't be the first case.
