LESSON 1 · Voice Care Essentials

Training Your Vocal Muscles

Vocal training follows the same principles as physical training: progressive overload, consistency, and recovery. Breath support exercises strengthen the diaphragm and intercostal muscles.

Resonance exercises train you to use the spaces in your throat, mouth, and sinuses to amplify sound naturally. A voice that resonates in the chest sounds fuller. A voice that resonates in the mask of the face (around the nose and cheeks) projects further with less effort.
