Where the 90 kg number comes from
The baseline is roughly 30–40 ml of water per kilogram of body weight, the widely cited rule of thumb backed by the U.S. National Academies and EFSA. A 90 kg person therefore lands near 3.3 litres before we layer on activity and climate.
The number above assumes a moderately active day in a temperate climate. Add about 350 ml (12 oz) for every half-hour of exercise, and around 10% more in hot or humid weather. Pregnancy, breastfeeding, fever, and some medications push it higher still. The calculator above adjusts all of this live — try it.
Don't drink it all at once
Your kidneys can clear only about 1 litre of water per hour. Spreading the goal across the day — and easing off in the last two hours before bed — keeps you comfortable and avoids nighttime bathroom trips. Pale yellow urine is a good everyday check that you're in the right zone.
