I sing *constantly* and will occasionally block out an hour or so to do "vocal workouts" that require quick and deep breathing. I know my lung capacity is improving, especially since taking off 93 lbs!! :) I'm curious, though...I don't sweat, so can I actually call it exercise?

 

TIA for any input!

The activity calculator (on this website) distinguishes between

Singing - sitting
Singing - standing

So I guess you could use that?

Thanks, Nir. :)

Unfortunately, I couldn't get the link to work. I'll have to try again later.
