well....if u wanna lenthen the time u can hold your breath for measures, everytime before u practice, breath in 8 counts, out 8 counts, in 6 out 6, in 4 out 4, in 2 out 2, in 1 out 1, and in 1 out 8. then evetually legthen it like instead of 8 like 12....and doin that helps with your breathing.

um dont put your finger in the pinky rest, put it on top.

use fast, hot air to get better tone and pitch

hold the trumpet parallel to the floor
