How much water do you really need?

A practical guide to hydration for Indian weather, workouts and busy days.

Water needs depend on your body size, activity and the weather. In hot Indian summers, or on training days, you need more than on a cool rest day.

A simple starting target

Your FitGeek plan gives a daily water target based on your weight and activity. Log each glass of 250 ml in My Quest to see how close you get.

Signs you need more

Dark yellow urine, headaches and feeling tired in the afternoon can be signs you are not drinking enough.

Spread it out

Drink a glass on waking, one with each meal and sip during workouts, rather than trying to catch up at night.

Tea, coffee and drinks

Tea and coffee count towards your fluids, but sugary drinks and juices add calories quickly. Plain water, buttermilk and nimbu pani without much sugar are better everyday choices.
