Warm-Up vs Workout
- A vocal warm-up's purpose is to prepare the voice for work, not to be the work itself.
- Nick contrasts warm-ups with workouts to clarify expectations and efficiency.
Keep Warm-Ups Short And Mindful
- Keep warm-ups short and focused: aim for 5–15 minutes rather than 30–60 minutes.
- Use mindfulness and awareness to make short warm-ups effective and responsive to your voice that day.

- Nick outlines stages that overlap but should flow: body, breath, resonance, articulation, words.
