Positioning on bike

I'm in need of some serious tips for how to position myself on the bike. Did another hour indoor training last night and found it pretty hard, not just on the legs or lungs, but much more on my arms, wrists and hands! Can't be the idea of cycling?!
Not to mention the private area of course. So, what to do? How do you manage to sit still and relax your arms while going 50 miles an hour? And are there any cycling shorts with extra padding or what do you call it? I know that in the old days Tour du France cyclists used big sirloin steaks as an extra muscle on their saddle, but I'm sure they've come up with something more ingenious by now, right?
But what about the wrists? Is it just me or do you get a feel of what I'm moaning about? Advice my friends! Bring it on.
