Goldfinch, it was really hard finding a bike that fit me. What bike do you have? I initially wanted to buy a used bike, but after searching for weeks and weeks, I finally realized that a used 44 cm would be hard to come by, much less one that actually worked for me. The two bottle cages just barely fit. I have a larger bottle on the lower one and a small bottle on the upper one. It's definitely a pretty tight fit! I'll look into those exercises. I think strengthening my core will be helpful. Thanks for the tips!

I have a Trek Madone that is the 43cm size with smaller wheels, 650s. Trek no longer makes a size this small.

You might check with your LBS to see if they have a program to try out saddles. Or, if they have used saddles or exchanged saddles to purchase for cheap or to try out.
