full-throated

With complete voice

Full-throated describes sounds produced with the full power of the voice—loud, unrestrained, and resonant: a full-throated roar from the crowd, full-throated singing.

By extension, it means wholehearted or emphatic: full-throated support for the candidate, a full-throated endorsement.

The figurative sense suggests holding nothing back.
