Hi. That's exactly what I have been experiencing for the last few months. Same story. I have my own notebook with comments like "left and up for the high range" or "push a bit on that frontal incisive but not too much because the lip will swell"... and I also thought about I should quit... already took some informations for tenor saxes on the net. I am on the edge... quitting my life-long passion for the trumpet. Only God knows what that means for me.
Hello Loaded Bass. Well, the concepts do work for tuba. Note the exercises themselves. You can applied the concepts to the exercises you may already have been practicing....or other tuba exercises from other books. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Picking up the trumpet again after many years off. Chops Express or Daily Routines? I have time for about 30 mins daily. Maybe longer some days.
Pieter Gaskin chops express for sure. I will talk more about this in the live Q&A today, but that’s the short answer.

I understand exactly what you are experiencing. Very similar to what happened to me. I will put an email together for you as soon as I can.
Does these methods work for Tuba players?
