Deep breathing exercises,keep body flexible and to complete the lung power program - running every day/at least 3-4 miles.

Start jogging at a slow pace for short distances EVERY DAY. When I joined the Army we started out running about a mile. After 6 months I could run 10 miles and hardly be breathing hard. Remember, you don't have to run fast, just try to run a little farther each time.

Firstly, breath in thru your nose, clearing all passages, force yourself once passages are clear to take in as much air as your lungs can hold, hold it, force air out using your stomach muscles. Repeat, 5 to 6 times, doing this once on the hour that your awake. Your respiratory count should go off the charts. Breath in......force it out......breath in......

Another method is pursed lip breathing
As you are breathing in thru the nose count .
Breath out thru pursed lips, the count out should be about 2x the count in
In COPD, this expands the bronical tubes

train at high altitudes.. also swimming is good for building lung capacity.. so swimming at high altitudes would probably be good training if you could handle it..
