Any aerobic exercise should help with lung capacity.

you could try swimming and working on staying under water or swimming without breathing to help...

i play flute, and this really helped me hold me breath for a long time, any woodwind/brass instrument can do that. i suggest that you learn an instrument!
good luck.
