Breaking in an Ace is like riding a bike[/caption]
First, great shirt choice. I have just recently gone back to the Ace. The good thing about the Ace is there is not a ton of give, so it does not have a lot of breaking in to do. What I have done is wet it down in the arms and the chest plate. Then I start working boards down. First week will be 3-board then to a 2-board, the following week is a 2- to a 1-board, and the next week is a 1-board and then to the chest. After that, deload and start your program.
I have had good success using the conjugate method with and without the shirt. If I were just learning the shirt, I'd probably wear it three times a month. I'd just pick different ME exercises to do in the shirt. Make one week a chain bench, another a band bench, and the other could be a reverse band. Get in the shirt and learn the groove.
