On Shoulder health for Guitar&Vocals
I stumbled upon this article and deemed it worthy of your mailbox, along with the follwing thougts:
As you have heard me say many times, your body is your instrument #1, guitar is #2.
It would follow that shoulders can be seen as a junction between your voice and your guitar playing.
Strong and flexible shoulders will facilitate a relaxed neck/throat/larynx for better tone & resonance.
Thoracic breath will be facilitated though abdominal breath is favored for singing.
Flexible shoulders will also increase arm/wrist/fingers flow by eliminate pinched nerves at the neck levels.
The ideal result is a perfectly integrated, smooth, flowing Guitar & Vocals performance.
Yours in musical health,
