Physical training for singing

PhMarne · February 2020

Hey everybody!
Besides vocal exercises, what kind of physical training do you think is beneficial to vocal health? Do you run or swim, for instance?
As regards diaphragmatic support, do you recommend stomach vacuum or plank or deadlifting?
Thanks so much for sharing your views

General cardio is best.
As to support anything that works your Transverse Abdomis' safely. The key is safety.

i do planks and deadlifting among others exercises, not necessarily for the singing but for general fitness. i find that staying fit helps with the singing though. started doing lots of plank variations recently, think it helped with the support. definitely did not hurt it

I would also go with resistance training, so gym, calisthenics and/or bodyweight-exercises. They will also build your cardio, but most importantly your strength and ability to control your body in many ways.

I do a lot of cardio kickboxing which inherently has a lot of core work. I have also started singing a bit while doing this to help with my control, not sure if that's a good idea or not but it seems to help!

@doc_ramadani @Steph_von_B Thank you kickboxers !
General cardio and bodyweight exercises will be a great deal of training for me...
