Pins & Needles in Hands

Bought a bike after not having rode one for a decade or so. Just riding gravel trails for now since im really out of shape. After about three miles of riding my hands get numb with the pins & needles feeling. Bad form? Wrong size bike? Or maybe just fat & out of shape 😀

EDIT: I raised the saddle to the proper height, moved the brakes inward and adjusted the brake angle a bit. Did a 4 mile test run today and was much better. Will get some grips & gloves next. Thanks all!
