- Standing up straight, lift your arms straight out to each side until they are extended out in a "T" position parallel to the floor.
- Slowly lower the weights back down to your sides. Repeat.

Al Roker can't hide his shock when told how often people should shower a week |
On the TODAY show, Al Roker, Dylan Dreyer and Sheinelle Jones guessed how often dermatologists recommend people shower. The answer? Two to three times a week. Dr. Mary Stevenson, assistant professor of dermatology at NYU Langone Health, says people "should be showering, bathing or cleansing yourself every two to three days." However, working out or engaging in a sweat-inducing activity may make you have to shower more often. Roker was not on board: "I shower twice a day," he said. But according to experts, his shower schedule can pose health issues. This is the danger in showering too often. |
