I'm leaving today for a hike starting at Amicalola. The problem is that I pulled a muscle yesterday while moving furniture. This doesn't feel like anything permanent (I've had back issues in the distant past. This is nothing like that).
So, would a hot tub help loosen the muscles? I'm taking Ibuprofen, but that may take awhile. I do not plan on stopping my hike before I start. I just want to know how to make this easier.
Any suggestions?
BTW, this'll be my fifth hike through GA, but my first up the approach trail. I'm pretty psyched.
