086 5 Mistakes People Make When Warming Up Their Voice
This week, I'm sharing five of the most common mistakes I see people making in their speaking voice warm ups. I'll explain why you shouldn't extend your warm ups for too long, improvise and go without a plan or focus exclusively on your vocal folds. I’ll also share my thoughts on singing to warm your voice, starting your routine with tongue twisters, and much more.
What You'll Learn In This Episode:
What happens to your voice when you stretch your vocal warm up too much
The issue with starting your warm ups with a tongue twister
How planning your warm ups can help you get the best out of them
The truth about singing to warm up your voice
Paying attention to the whole body when warming up your voice
Warming up your voice is crucial for your long-term vocal maintenance and care. It benefits your voice, your body as a whole and even your soul. That is one more reason to make it an enjoyable part of your routine and not a long and unpleasant session of total discomfort.
