THE VOICE CONNECTION
SOUND OFF

Welcome to The Voice Connection Sound Off; a forum for users of books like Raise Your Voice, Melody to Madness, The Ultimate Breathing Workout, and Unleash Your Creative Mindset, as well as a place for Vendera Vocal Academy members to interact.

This message board was created so that singers could come together and "sound off" to help support each other during vocal development and the creative process of unleashing the creative spark that occurs when writing and producing music. Currently, myself and vocal coaches Ben Valen, Ray West, and Ryan Wall are here to respond periodicially to your questions, with new vocal coaches coming soon. But, feel free to help each other too:)

This board is here for you to ask questions about my and my fellow coach's books, videos, and MP3 programs, as well as offer others help with our vocal techniques. You may also post videos of yourself and your band to share your music and ask for critiques.

Please refrain from negative comments, profanities, spamming, and inappropriate criticisms of vocal methodologies, vocal coaches, and singers. All negative posts will be deleted and subject to banning without question. I will not respond to negative posts, because, as Mark Twain once said, “Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.” With that said, positive criticism is welcome because that is how you'll grow as a singer during the training process.

Re: The perfect way to strenghten the stomach muscles , diaphragm and lungs !

Got to do those and more when I was training for the university climbing team. Having a stronger core did actually make quite a bit of a difference in singing and also made me have a much better posture.

Re: The perfect way to strenghten the stomach muscles , diaphragm and lungs !

That is perhaps the best exercise there is for developing your core muscles. It is great for your back and stomach muscles. My younger brother turned me onto them. I've been living on Tuna for the last week since I've started cutting,and I just started doing them myself. back in the 90's I was doing hundreds of crunches every day. I was obsessed with them. and it is funny, within the last week, I can already see the upper portion of the 6-pack showing up. I thought I had lost it, but nope it is still there, just covered in fat from eating like a horse and sitting on my duff.
