Pulling chest voice occurs as you sing from your low voice, chest voice, through the bridge or passaggio and into your high voice, head voice.

Or You might do this if you don't know how to allow the mix to come in.

Pulled chest is part of the very common vocal type, pulled chest-high larynx.

It's what I used to do before I learned how to mix.

It's hard to break old habits of pulling chest.

Incredibly, many vocal teachers actually encourage or allow pulling chest voice.

Here's one exercise to stop the pulled chest voice.

This exercise uses an NG sound like this as in sing.

You'll use this on three different scales.

I'll demonstrate it, then it's your turn.

On each of these scales, don't do it loud or aggressive.

Do it just firmly enough to hold your connection.

If you do it correctly, you can't do it if you pinch your nose closed.

Second, the octave repeat with the word Ming.

Third, the 1 and a half scale with the NG sound.

I'll demonstrate it first, then it's your turn.
