Regardless of what you do (I like the arpegios already suggested) make sure you gliss everything. That really helps me. I often start with justs fifths (c-f-c; b-f#-b; etc.). But the long gliss makes that worthwhile. Also, do some sirens in your spare time. I carry my mouthpiece in my pocket so I can do this whenever I have a free moment. Start as low as comfortable, gliss as high as you can, and go back. I also think that this stuff on my C mouthpiece (88) helps me more than on my F (64). Just a thought.
