TIPS FOR VOCAL MAINTENANCE
1. To build up stamina, do basic vocal exercises every day.
2. A healthy diet equals a healthy voice.
3. Get plenty of sleep.
4. Drink plenty of liquids so that you are always hydrated. Water is best - 6 glasses daily.
5. Respect resting your voice. It's just as important as resting your body.
6. Warm up and, when done with a set, warm down.
7. Singers must be physically flexible. Stretch and do aerobic activity.
8. Avoid mucous causing foods - milk, chocolate, pizza, dairy products - when you are near a performance.
9. Sing the song in the best key possible.
10. Before performing a song, know how you want to present it. That way you won't fall victim to excess or vocal strain.
