In this lesson, Patrick Lundquist from OOVO offers a voice hack to help a singer become a vocal athlete: Resistance Training for your voice. The practice of using "Straw Phonation" or "Straw Singing" or "Vocal Straws" are a continuation of semi-occluded vocal tract exercises that go back as long as humans have been singing. Providing added resistance to phonation lets a person sing more efficiently and helps them have a strong, nimble, resilient voice.
