How to prevent callus'?

[Freeman]

Yes i'll admit it, i'm no man, i am a wuss and want my hands nice and smooth

Anyways, i am lifting pretty heavy weights these days, and it's creating 3 callus' on each of my hands, not nice, even worse i pick at them subconsciously making them worse!

I was thinking of getting gloves. Do they work well? And is there any other way of preventing callus' from forming, eg creams or anything like that i can put on my hands at the end of gym.

I thought this may come under a medical thread, but it is so similar to this one http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=17634058 i thought i'd ask.

If it is breaking any rules, ever so sorry dear mods!

Thanks.

I still have them and I've been wearing gloves for the last 10 months while lifting.

You could just join the rest of the woman population and go for manicures from time to time.
