Most men assume there is simply nothing they can do when it comes to deepening their voice.  This is just simply not true, there are plenty of ways one can go about deepening the tone of their voice, through various vocal exercises. While it won’t necessarily be easy, it is entirely possible with the right vocal training.

The fact is, our vocal chords are a muscle group and can be strengthened just like every other muscle group in our bodies. The only difference is, it will take a different kind of exercise, a more concentrated and specific exercise, in order to deepen the voice.  Most of these exercises can take months to see any results with. The reason why it can take such long periods of time for your voice to change, is because most of the exercises that will allow you to do so, are actually geared towards goals other than just making your voice deep.

Most of the vocal training exercises attempt to teach one how to control the vocal chords so they can sing better, A.K.A singing lessons. The problem is, a lot of guys could give a hoot if they can sing, they just want a deeper voice. There are other more motivational type methods that people get confused with such as hypnosis. These methods are not very successful, that is unless the person being hypnotized firmly believes that the hypnosis will work for them. It has been said “You are as you think” and that is the core issue of hypnosis, it only works on those who believe it will. It is simply a method of unleashing your own willpower in a subconscious way.

Another exercise known as elocution, attempts to teach one to speak more eloquently, so they may use their voice more effectively in venues such as job interviews.

All of these exercises really are beating around the bush when it comes to getting a deep voice, and if you are trying to get a deep voice then singing exercises would still be your best bet. However if you are trying to target a specific tone, like a having a deeper voice, then I would suggest you limit the exercises to ones that will help you with this. For example, just walk around all day humming different notes in a deep voice, over time this is a sure fire way to see results. Remember persistence is the key, when it comes to changing any part of your body, not just the voice.

There are many reasons why a person may seek to lower the tone of their voice. Equally, there are many methods that can be adopted to achieve this. However, a great and natural way to start is by taking up singing. Professional singers are trained in voice control and this knowledge can be imparted to you to help you lower your voice. When you first start singing you will probably find that you are not very good at it. Your range of notes is likely to be quite low and it will be difficult to sing in tune.

One of the reasons those new to singing experience these problems is because the muscles used to control the voice are insufficiently developed. These muscles are the diaphragm and intercostals muscles which are located in the thorax. It is important to regularly exercise these muscles so that they become strong and toned. Exercises which help you to achieve this will improve your voice control and make it become deeper.

In the beginning you will have what is known as a mid range voice. This means that at first you will have a very limited range of notes and experience difficulties reaching the notes at the high and low ends of the scale.

As you progress and continue with your exercises you will notice a marked improvement in your range of notes. Your speaking voice will also become noticeably lower. As this change occurs it is important to ensure that you maintain the volume of your voice and not slip into the habit of allowing it to become too soft.

There are other exercises, which can be performed in conjunction with your singing to help lower your voice. These are the speech and breathing exercises taught in drama schools. They are similar in nature to singing exercises but are performed with the specific purpose of helping you to speak naturally with a lower voice.

Of course using natural methods to lower your voice takes time and patience. You can ordinarily expect it to take up to a year for a noticeable change to occur. In this case you may wish to seek hormonal treatments or other medications to help speed up the process.

In the majority of cases hormonal treatments would not be considered simply for career reasons. Hormonal treatments are only considered appropriate for serious medical conditions. This includes those women seeking gender-realignment surgery to become a man. However, hormonal treatments can be prohibitively expensive. Natural methods provide a much cheaper alternative to use in the first instance.
