singing - increase chest voice range

   Step 1
   
         Work on your breathing techniques. The higher ranges require more breath but this can kill your low notes. Increase breath intake gradually when moving to the higher notes during your vocal exercises.
     
         Step 2
   
         Breathe in while pushing your stomach out five times before doing your warm up exercises. Notice what your diaphragm is doing when you sing the notes. Correct use of these muscles makes playing between the ranges effortless.
     
         Step 3
   
         Do your warm-up vocal exercises with care. Start with the lowest note that's comfortable for you to sing and travel up to the highest note you can without straining your voice.
     
         Step 4
   
         Access your chest voice by working on the lower ranges. Notice where you feel the notes vibrating. This will help you when you start to work on your head voice.
     
         Step 5
   
         Relax your singing muscles by concentrating on your diaphragm and jaw. You should be moving your abdomen out when you inhale. Your jaw should move freely so the vowels come out clearly but not exaggerated.
     
         Step 6
   
         Practice your head voice by singing an open vowel like the short "a" or "e" sound. Feel the note vibrate in the back of your nose. Take care the vowels don't sound nasally.
     
         Step 7
   
         Perform vocal range exercises by switching between low and high notes. Use the power of your diaphragm and the manipulation of breathing.
     
         Step 8
   
         Increase your range by feeling the lower notes vibrating somewhere between your chest and nasal passages.
   
   Hope that helps,

   Hi There,
   Whew! You must have been thinking about these issues for sometime and I like the way you string this set of questions because, believe it or not, if you answer one, you have fixed nearly all the others.
   
   It is certainly interesting that one of your questions is the most often asked question I get. It is also a question that people will read the answer and then immediately ask the same question again. Here is why.
   
   You said..."I have read the report on how you were saying vocal exercises can help increase vocal range, so what are the steps and techniques I can use to increase my vocal range?"
   
   I get various versions of this question so much so that I have concluded that this is what you might call a very "illusive" issue. The good news is that you will be pleased to note that it is not difficult to increase and expanding your voice range...it is just illusive. Once it "clicks" and you understand it, you will be surprised that it can be so simple after all.
   
   Now, for the bad news, it is somewhat like riding a bicycle. You cannot possibly learn to ride a bicycle by reading an article or even a million articles without getting on a bike and start practicing. The problem is that many people are doing just that when learning how to sing.
   
   It is the same thing when you want to increase your voice range. You can possibly learn it from an article such as this one, but would be unlikely to master the skill...because it involves muscles moving and some of them are so small that you can't even see them. Then you must also master the precise coordination of these muscles and breathing techniques which is taught mainly by listening and repeating the vocal exercises and then in actual singing.
   
   The most likely way you will increase your voice range is by going right now and getting the singing course that is designed to teach you exactly that "Systematic Vocal Training Program" – Here is the link - How to increase vocal range. It is called a "Systematic" course because that is what it takes to increase your range. A system of voice exercises that expand your voice range.
   
   You would be considered crazy if you went around asking, "I need some helpful tips on becoming a proficient medical surgeon in time for a cancer operation next month."  However, nobody flinches before asking "Gimme some singing tips on how to increase my voice range."
   
   Perhaps, I am the one who is crazy because I keep giving out singing tips on how to increase their voice range when asked, just like in this article.
   
   So here are somemore of my "crazy" singing tips on how to increase your vocal range...but first, a word of warning...if you want to actually experience a "breakthrough", you need a systematic vocal exercises program to get your voice there.
   
   Increase Vocal Range Tip #1: Firstly, you must learn to get the wrong muscles out of the way. We have a system of exercises that do just that. They are in my singing lessons and they are "listen, then do" exercises. This is to "trick" the wrong muscles into dis-engaging (by my strange - sounding vocal exercises).
   Thanks
