Ice baths after tough workouts a great because the cold promotes an environment for healing by reducing inflammation and other chemical reactions in the body that are beneficial. Never go into a hot tub after a tough workout, it will only increase the inflammation. When you do your next ice bath, don't stop a just cold water, add ice to.
Use the hot tub 24-48 hours after training to loosen up. Ice bath immediately after workouts to reduce inflammation. LAte
