Wrap the glove with rubber bands and put it under your pillow when you sleep. It should lossen it up nicely, also lots and lots of catch. Good luck! I am not sure if that treatment (Hot Glove)you have there wants you to microwave or bake your glove,most glove companies recommend staying away from any heat treatment,in fact most will not warrantee a glove in that situation....only true way to break in a glove is to play tons of catch and cover it in a conditioner like Nokona's glove conditioner or something similar...baking will dry out and cook the leather and ruin the laces, it is a temporary fix that does too much damage Too late.. Already did it.
