Any question answered...

Does anybody have any Top Tips (tm) for loosening up my shoulders / posture on mah bike? People have always told me that I'm too tense. I've been this way for as long as I remember and I'm no longer able to recognise tension for what it is until I realise I'm riding along as though as my arms and shoulders are made out of tungsten and my armpits are practically above my ears. It's especially bad after a long descent when I've been leaning on the brakes as I'm naturally more tense then, but forget to loosen up again afterwards. Even if I make a conscious effort to relax it kind of feels like I'm tensing my shoulders in the other direction, trying to pull them downwards instead of upwards. I've apparently lost all sense of what's comfortable and correct for my own body.

Plz halp.
