Nice read! Like the changes in pace.

Your performance has a solid foundation, but it’s important to add more variety to keep your audience engaged. Try experimenting with different inflections, emphasis, volume, and emotion. If your read stays at the same tone throughout, it can become monotonous and may cause listeners to lose interest. Think about how you can take your audience on a journey with your performance by varying these elements.

Additionally, continue working on your breathing exercises to improve your breath control and projection. For the gym scenario, envision yourself speaking to someone across a large space, which will help you project your voice more effectively and ensure it carries well. By integrating these changes, you'll create a more dynamic and captivating performance. Keep up the good work!
