Sport seats uncomfortable...just me?

Ive got sports seats in my "s" and ever since Ive owned the car I just cannot make a journey without being uncomfortable, does anyone else experience this? maybe its just because of my height..short bum but whatever way i adjust the seat it doesnt really help, I just find a compromise
