You should not adjust saddle to bar reach via the saddle.
Saddle position should purely be positioned to get you so that you are pedalling equally with your quads and hamstrings.
If you have too much weight on your hands you may have your bars too close to you.
It seems counter-intuituve, but having a longer stem, may be what you need.
You may also have your saddle too high.
There are a number of things it could be though.
