In my opinion, tone production has quite a bit to do with how much air can and should be packed into the lungs. One of the major roadblocks to good sound production for many students is that they do not have enough air going in to properly support the air going out.>>

Roger, I absolutely agree. Many students do not "fill up" with enough air to be able to adequately support their tone.

However, working hard to pack in the last possible puff of air could also lead to tension throughout the chest and abdomen.
