Should I Chomp Down with Invisalign?

3207anon
I just got my 2nd tray set. These are significantly tighter than my first set and have begun to alter my bite. I am having difficulty chewing food, as my front teeth touch, causing a gap between my molars. My question is this: should I be clenching my teeth in a proper bite to affect the movement of the upper teeth as a whole, or should I just relax my jaw and allow the teeth to be manipulated by the trays? Also, does clenching down and increasing the pressure make invisalign more effective?
