What do you do to strengthen the muscle around the lips? My lips get sore after playing a few measures and my embochure becomes very tight...

Just by practicing regularly. You can`t expect your lips to get in shape immediately.
It`s like expecting a couch potato to be able to get up and run 3 miles. Can`t do it. But with practice in time they can do it.

Well, it`s gonna take a while to strengthen the muscles, but what`s more preferrable is to not support all the air pressure with the mouth, but to breathe not with your lungs but with your stomache, and your belly should expand, and by using the stomache muscles you should push the air, and that would help A LOT, for your mouth sore-ness.
It`ll take a while to get used to using your stomach, but I think it`s a way better way.
