We had so much material on SOVT techniques, straws and AMAs that we had to split it in 2! Here is part 2 of Oren Boder's return visit. All 3 of us answer questions on:

• Athletic vocal exercises - what does that mean?
• The difference between athletic, therapeutic and agility SOVT work
• A/C versus D/C backpressure and what it means for your vocal folds
• Lumpy runs and how to avoid them
• When not to use straws
• Why you might want to match your straw to a lower glottal impedance before building resistance
• Oren's take on teachers who claim SOVT isn't as useful for M2 singing
• Why SOVT exercises DON'T force a change in vibration and what they DO change
• Using "Puffy cheeks" and straws
• A top tip from Oren, Jeremy and Gillyanne to take away
