Peak vocal performance depends on far more than the voice alone. In this talk, we'll explore why skeletal muscle is one of the strongest predictors of long-term health, resilience, and performance. We'll discuss how increasing and maintaining lean muscle mass improves body composition, reduces the risk of chronic disease and all-cause mortality, and enhances physical capacity throughout life. Most importantly, we'll connect these principles to the unique demands of singers. We'll explore how strength, movement quality, and overall physical robustness support breath control, posture, recovery, injury resilience, and consistent vocal performance. Whether you're a professional performer or simply interested in optimising your health, this session will provide practical, evidence-based insights into using muscle as the foundation for a healthier, more resilient body—and a more resilient voice.
