Re: Shower Frequency

Once upon a time, I used to work out twice a day (weights first session, running/rowing/swimming 2nd) for 5 days a week, but cut down when the 2 sets of showers started making my skin weird (large discoloured patches, flaing in places, itchy bits etc). It did take about 2-3 months to start to cause this though.
It ain't good for you to do a complete body-wash several times a day for a long stretch, I'd say.

years back when I was in high school I had gym class for 2 1/2 hours every day, I would shower afterwords (the only guy who did too, which is really gross after a 2 1/2 hour gym class in the morning) and then we had basketball practice after school, another shower. this 2 showers a day was very consistent, and, in the winter, turned my skin into leather.
It would crack and be compeletely dry, it was awful. So, I stopped taking showers now...
