I'm relatively new to serious road biking. I used to tour but just started "real" road biking three years ago. It is just this summer that I am able to use my core enough to unweight my hands reasonably well.
+1 to strengthening your core along with understanding the rotation of the pelvis because it's critical to reducing weight by changing the basic posture of the upper body. http://jonathanblyer.wordpress.com/2...cling-posture/
