Stop more often and stretch would probably be a good place to start.  Different bars, bar ends, pegs and gear could also make a difference.

Wearing gloves and shoes with heavier soles can help and also try to support your weight with your midsection instead of your hands.

Good luck!

The lead in the bars and foam does a good bit. I did a short write up here on gstwins about lead in the bars. It works !
