Weeks 7 and 8: extending the top
How to work above your transition for two weeks: height without weight, head voice before belt, and hard limits on volume and repetition.
Move on when: A range test on two different days that reaches the same top note, without either attempt being one you had to push for.
The evidence comes from the range test, which is where this app measures it.
When it does not pass, the blocker is usually this one. A one-day ceiling. A high note that appears once and not again was a good day, and building the next fortnight on it is how a singer ends up straining.
What passing does not prove: A usable top. A scan records the extreme reached by pushing; a working range trims the edges, and the two are different numbers.
