Just a reminder for everyone : at first it'll be hard to do all the exercises with ease nd it's going to be flat. We're just starting to develop this technique nd like working out it's going to take some time to be able to lift the heavy weights much more easier than before :). Be easy on urself, don't be ashamed on how u sound in the begging, progress is progress, nd everyone's is valid!
I’m a beginner but I managed to do this, but the excercise 4-7 mins was so hard! I had to take a 10 min break to finish it. Day 1: Done Day 2: Impossible. 😭 Update: I give up. I’m gonna come back when I get better at other videos 4 month update( May 21st), these excercises are too slow for me now. I do the hardest one effortlessly! If you’re consistent you will improve!!
@@ShivamSharma-5622 i’ve been doing other excercises this past month LOL this is too hard for my weak voice. i’ll try this in march, i’m improving a lot with practice
I taught myself how to sing with all Jacobs videos, I can sing any song you can think of.... And I used to be a rapper... Now I'm the weeknd level... Thanks to these vids bruhh 🖤 can't thank you enough!!!
I used Jacob's TH-cam videos to warm up when I joined the local choir. Now I have a vocal coach, but use Jacob's videos to practice the techniques she teaches me.
Boy you're a blessing to me. May you find every happiness you've been wishing for, and may the Almighty surprise you with the gifts you never asked for.
I’m so excited!! Just a month ago I couldn’t do any of the exercises but after practicing once a day every day for the entire month I can finally do every one! Omgg Thankyou Jacob 💞 absolutely love this
Could you please post a video on riffs and runs daily exercises hard? BTW, this video is so good and I really appreciate all the effort you put into your videos, which help a lot of people with their singing!
It’s been some years since I’ve practiced and trained my voice/ear, and this definitely was not a beginner excercise. I loved it though. I’ll have to come back to it later!
That was fun. I get so frustrated bc I want my voice to be better, but I can feel improvement every day when I practice consistently. And these videos def save me money and embarrassment of sucking in front of people! Haha
That’s great! I have a question we’ll maybe 2 lol the first one is: do you do these alongside vocal warmups? And the second is: when it gets too high or too low for ur voice to handle, do u just stop singing it and wait for it to go back down or back up, or do u just push yourself to the limit? Thank u for reading this!
i used to take singing lessons. it’s been at least 8 years though. and over the years i sang less and less. haven’t done as many vocal warm ups/exercises as today. i can tell that my singing is worse than it was when i was at my best (i’m not that great though). but i think i did quite alright with this one. even though the last exercise, i had to listen to it a few times. i hope i’ll be motivated and remember to come back to this 😊
I have a theory. I think this isn’t that bad if you have well developed vibrato. It’ll take over and correct the pitches so you don’t be off when doing this. It just takes over
This is great for when I'm not a vocal class! I've done almost all the vocal exercises from JVA and this is one of my favorites! Just be sure to do a good warm up BEFORE you do this one.
fr, my vocals have improved SO MUCH since i started following Jacob's vocal training videos.... AM I'M SHOCKED THAT SOMEONE WITH A VOICE THAT ONCE SOUNDED LIKE A RAT, SOUNDS DECENT NOW 😭😭
I record myself & listen to the playback. I started with the easy/beginner R&R vids. I have noticed improvement. I think I'm ready for Hard.. See you all in the comments there!! LOL
Should I be doing this if I'm not perfect with the fast runs yet? Most notably the run playing at 5:00. Is it more hurtful to attempt them while not nailing them or is that the point? Curious.
Hey y'all. I'm trying to do vocal workouts (just getting back into vocals after a few years) and I'm finding that I'm really tame. I'm in my house where people are (unfortunately for them) forced to listen to my liprolls and other workouts, with more vocal techniques than just cleans, and they increasingly more annoying. (Yes, I'm using them safely.) But I think it can be irritating for them. I have no idea how to have the confidence not to be so tame because of that, so any advice would be great!
You can use a pillow (or a belt box if you’re willing to buy one, I have one and it’s an excellent muffler), choose times to do the vocal workouts when people are out of the house, or just leave all your insecurities at the door! I’ve been down this road before, I used to suck so I did vocal workouts every day in the shower. Needless, it payed off bcuz now I’m an excellent singer and got the opportunity to be professionally trained, so I know it works. This doesn’t mean “do your vocal exercises while their on the phone or trying to finish a big project and then expect them to not go and tell you to quiet down” , but firmly tell them that these are things you need to do, and remember that it’s not their voice, it’s YOURS. Everyone starts somewhere, so even if it may be annoying now, in a year you (and your family) are going to thank you for putting the work into your voice😊💜
I have the same problem. I just talked to them and told them that there is an hour during the day in which I do it, and they expect that to happen! Now I released my first song and they’re very happy for me! Communication is everything! Good luck :)
Hi I saw this reply by @Jamie S and it made feel so understood and hopeful! I was wondering, how did you get the opportunity to be professionally trained?
Thanks for all the videos you are placing, and i have a question about schedule. What is better way to do exercises - right now i do different exercises (for example - for chest voice in monday, for range in tuesday, for hed voice in wednesday etc.), but maybe it's better to train chest voice for week or two, then range, then head voice with same pattern. I'll be very appreciated if you'll help me with it..
I think it depends on what you feel most comfortable with, personally for me it's "A" vowel. Try different vowels and see which one works best for you :)
@@nah7612 @nah Could be that you are putting too much pressure/strain on your voice to reach ccertain notes. There are tutorials on how to reduce strain. I would recommend to try following one of those, because you could potentially injure your voice by straining it. Good luck with singing and enjoy!
my throat seems a little bit forced sometimes, is this normal? can everyone sing all the notes you play? or do we have to stop at some point by ourselves? sorry, I am new at this and I really wanna do this right, I just have fear to hurt myself and affect my voice...
Just sing what you can sing, it's ok you can't sing all the notes (especially if they in not your range), with time and practice you'll widen your range.
Imma do this every night Day 1: The notes are so fast I dont even know if im hitting each step Day 2: Feels the same Day 3:Recorded myself and realized Im bending the notes not jumping :(
Heya! I just came across this comment whilst doing the warmups, and I thought I'd give it a shot at answering! So this video is to help with your riffs and runs which are basically fancy embelishments pop stars like Ariana grande use over a range of notes so like they'd descend like 5 notes whilst vibrato can be used on one note which is basically like a controlled 'wobble' in the voice like Shawn Mendes uses it a lot I hope that helped!:)
To whoever is trying, don't give up! you can do it! I was right here too and now I've released my first song! Eternally grateful for Jacob
