I attended Bob Jones Unviversity for a short while, and the tuba instructor there, Dr. Turner, required me to run a mile a day as part of my tuba lesson. After running you'll notice that your breathing is much deeper and that the amount of air your body requires is substantially more then normal. It is this type of breathing in that you want when playing.
