Today I was doing squats with a pad on the bar that goes across my back. I was only doing reps of 225lbs and I noticed later that day that I had something like bruise marks that outline the bar on my back. Does anyone else get this? and how can I prevent it?
Marks on my back/shoulders

nothing serious i noticed "pads" of any kind do more damage than pure metal, not that i pad for squats ( wtf )
but when i do machine calf raises there used to be pads on them and i always had bruised shoulders, now the pads were removed for some reason and i just stuck a thin ass sweat towel around my neck and all it is is pain but i dont see any ruptured blood vessels at my skin.
