Have you got too much pressure in your shock and/or forks? Check the ‘sag’ is roughly what you want and then ‘fiddle’ with pressures to see how it affects your suspension feel. In a similar way, sounds like you could play with tyre pressures. Just going on psi isn’t the be all and end all though. It obviously depends on your weight, the volume of your tyre and the side wall stiffness of the tyre as to what you can get away with and what feels right.
That’s part of the ‘fun’ though. GMBN have some good youtube guides to setting stuff up – start there and evolve to your preference. There are no rules; some people like to ‘feel’ the trail, others like to ride a marshmallow and I guess there are many in between.
