    I agree - poor posture on the bike, most likely combined with a bad fit.

    Also, you don't need to strengthen your shoulders, you need to strengthen your core.

    You should "float" on the handlebars - your abs should be engaged and fully supporting your upper body with your core, so you have minimal weight/pressure on your hands. You should be able to take one hand off the handlebars and still be able to ride in a straight line, because you only have minimal input from the other hand.

    Hope that helps :flowerforyou:
