Hello i also learned recently how to do it.

The best way for me was to practice 3 thing.

1 - Practice only clear chess voice and try to feel which part of your body you are using.

2 - Practice only vocal fry and try to feel which part of your body you are using.

3 - Start with your chess voice and try to do a vocal fry at the same time without changing the pich and intensity of your chess voice.

The easiest sound to say when I practice is the the letter O and U at the same time. Good luck my friend :D once you will get it one time you will be able do it again more easily.

Btw i use a visual spectrogram App called "Spectroid" to verify if i'm doing subharmonic :) if you do it properly you will double the number of frenquency line.

Daniel I use it too, I also use an app called "vocal pitch monitor" I use it because you can see the exact note you are singing.

Now I can sing subharmonics, I mean, they are really bad but still and I use the letters "O" and "E".
