Are there any particular exercises you do when you practice?  If so, what is your goal in using these?  To improve range, articulation, etc.?  
I ask, because I just discovered that lip slurs do wonders all around.

I don't know why but that made me laugh so hard.

my warm up routine consists of some low notes just to get me breathing and get some warm air through my horn, then i do a couple of series of lip slurs, first in my lower register and then with a more upper register exercise.

then i wait for a few minutes and dive into practicing. part of my assignment for the week consists of a technical/physical exercise so i usually go with that next or sometimes i prefer just going into whatever concerto i'm working on.
