Help! Please. Stretcher strips bowing.




I just stretched a canvas on 60" x 60" heavy duty strips. I thought I would get away without putting a bracer bar in it. Dumb, me! I applied the acryilic gesso and now the strips are bowing inward. What's the best way to fix this? Should I unstaple two sides and restaple? Seems like it would be too loose. I can't think of any other way. Help, please.
