Not getting much off the saddle at all, except to get some respite when it gets painful.
In terms of changing position i shift tiny bits back and forth when the legs are usually more tired to sqeeze different muscles, sometimes change to a bit more "aero" and occasionally sit up when I recover between intervals. don't think I could shift around much more than that

I have been training on the turbo on/off for the last year and a bit.
I recently started using my do-it-all bike on the turbo (Kickr Core). It fits me like a glove when riding it off the turbo, with many years and km of tested adjustments.
However it is rather painful to sit on it on the turbo for more than 30min, becoming painful for anything longer than an hour. This is quite baffling given how comfortable it is off the turbo.
The most painful are the contact points on my sit bones, not necessarily getting saddle sores, but rather numbness due to pressure which then induces me to change position and eventually overcompensate and generate all sorts of pains. I've already tried several different bibs, not much difference to notice even when using better newer ones.
At the moment this is the only bike I can use on the turbo.
What changes should I consider? Is my saddle width right? More compliant seatpost? Anyone else dealt with the same issues?
