Good morning and here's another #techniquetip for ol' #coachbabyface (follow this hashtag, the current look won't last!)! Upon performing any #pulldownvariation, always make sure to brace, just as you'd do with any big #compoundexercise. Breath into your belly before your pull, exhale once your chosen bar is at the top of your chest, and inhale again before your raise the bar back to its starting point. The #spinalstability will ensure that you don't arch your #lowerback, especially as the weight gets heavier. Here's a smooth, controlled 100x10 using the #magbar. I'm available for #oneononepersonaltraining at the ICONIC @strongandshapely. I'm also available for #athomepersonaltraining as well as #onlinepersonaltraining via Zoom.

TECHNIQUE TIP: Every time we hear someone talk about the rowing stroke as a "pull" (with the arms) a little piece of us dies. In fact, it's a push with your legs: 60-70 percent of the #rowing stroke comes from the legs. ⠀ ⠀ Your mantra is: Legs-Body-Arms on the drive; Arms-Body-Legs on the recovery. ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ ⠀ #themoreyouknowthebetteryourow #getcertified #indoorrowing #concept2 #concept2rowing #rowingtechnique #techniquetuesday #rowingforeverybody #rowingisforeverybody #techniquetip #indoorrower #rowingmachine #erging #remoindoor #aviron #avironindoor (at UCanRow2)

Singing Tip for Technique Tuesday

I’m currently reviewing my early vocal technique Teaching Videos - ones I specifically created for members of Virtually Vocalise when our mentoring group for singers was just starting out. I’m also updating the original article first posted in June 2017.

Backstory

Our library of said teaching videos, covering all manner of singing-journey learning, now numbers in excess of 60. Each video sets out to explore, explain and teach in bite-sized lengths of about 10-15 minutes each. We’re exploring the initial offerings so that singers can see just how far they have come in their understanding to date.

I’m known for talking a lot about vocal technique basics. They are so essential, and often very overlooked, with students sometimes wanting to rush on to the more complicated and glossy stuff. If you don’t pay attention to the small stuff, the essential singing know-how tools, vocal problems can come back to BITE you later and are more difficult to undo.

Today’s #techniquetip

The subject in review today, is grasping the difference between vowels and consonants in relation to the flow of air and our connection to the source of vocal sound. 

Singers are understandably primarily pre-occupied with the sound that they make - thinking mostly in terms of ‘support’ and ‘vocal tone’, underpinned by such considerations as ‘breathing’ ‘onset’ and ‘resonance’, and good use of vowels to carry it along.

Yet, getting to grips with the finer details of say, the articulatory system and perhaps where associated weak links can lurk, can be a bit vague - perhaps rather hit and miss.

Why is this important?

Everyone expects to sing vocal exercises on vowels, right? But not many singers will spend time examining how their consonants are formed, and how the articulators play their part. Tongue-twisters are both illuminating and fun:

Three free thugs set three thugs free.

Try it. Or these ...

Six sick hicks nick six slick bricks with picks and sticks.

A synonym for cinnamon is a cinnamon synonym.

Amidst the mists and coldest frosts, With stoutest wrists and loudest boasts, He thrusts his fists against the posts, And still insists he sees the ghosts. 

She is a thistle-sifter. She has a sieve of unsifted thistles and a sieve of sifted thistles and the sieve of unsifted thistles she sifts into the sieve of sifted thistles because she is a thistle-sifter. 

What should you be looking for?

It’s a vast subject - but as a start, get those articulators moving. Work out what’s happening for YOU: 

Does any particular combination of consonants pose more of a problem than others? 

Do you notice particular triggers?

Is your flow of air interrupted at all? 

Which patterns seem to demand more breath?
