Unless you’re, like, aggressively sweating and you just biked 20 miles.
Then, yes, yo wash your legs.

However, Dr. Shokeen’s advice doesn’t mean that we should get lazy when showering.
Although skipping legs is generally fine, there are othermore dirt proneareas of the body that need extra attention.
