I feel that one of the biggest problems I have at the moment is vocal power. Has anyone had any real success with improving their voice? Most internet related advice appears to be of the drink less, smoke less, stand up straight variety which to seems to me the equivalent of saying wear nice clothes and cologne to be good at picking up chicks. I'm currently reading an interesting book that goes on the basis that your voice is a muscle and can be built, rather than being something you are gifted with. It's way too early for me too see any results yet. If any one has any input or knows some good reading material that would be great.

p.s sorry if this has been covered/ in wrong section

Why do you see vocal power as a problem? Anyone can raise their voice and I'm sure if you chat to a girl that she'll be able to hear you. Can you be more specific in terms of what you're looking to change.
