Water Intake Calculator Formula / How It Works

The calculator takes half your weight in ounces as a baseline, adding 12 ounces of water for every 30 minutes of physical exercise.

Formula:Base intake = weight_lbs * 0.5 oz. Add 12 oz of water for every 30 minutes of exercise.
Example Calculation:

For example, let's look at a body weight of 160 pounds (approx. 72 kg) and 60 minutes of daily exercise. By entering these values into the tool, you will get a recommended daily water intake of 104 ounces, representing approximately 3.1 liters of water instantly.
