Top 10 tips for vocal health for singers PART 2 @femifaronbi @singingexercises_femifaronbi 4. Warm-up We need to stretch and relax the muscles before we sing, in just the same way as we would before physical exercise. It might be tempting to skip it, but without a warm-up your voice will be wispy and flat in no time. A gentle warm-up loosens the vocal muscles, removes excess mucous and reduces the risk of injury. Don’t go to the outer parameters of your voice though, some gentle exercises like humming will do the trick. 5. No shouting Raising your voice suddenly will put a huge strain on your vocal cords if you haven’t warmed-up. Ok, sometimes you need to – kids run into roads and toddlers get too close to ovens – the key is being mindful. 6. Healthy eating A diet that promotes overall good health will also be great for your voice. Fresh fruit and vegetables contain a high water content and foods that hydrates you will help your vocal cords. Try to avoid anything claggy which create mucous like dairy and chocolate.
