Intra‑Workout Calculator – Fuel & Hydration During Exercise

Intra‑Workout Calculator

Optimise your performance with personalised fluid, carbohydrate, and electrolyte recommendations during exercise. Based on your weight, workout duration, and intensity.

Step 1: Your Stats

min

Why these matter

Sweat rate increases with intensity, temperature, and duration. Accurate inputs help tailor your intra‑workout fuel.

Step 2: Drink Preferences

Intra‑workout basics

Goal: replace fluids lost (sweat) and provide quick carbs for endurance. Sodium helps retain fluid and avoid cramping.

Hydration tip

Start sipping from the beginning. Don’t wait until you feel thirsty. For workouts >90 min, increase carbs to 60‑90 g/h.

Nutrient & fluid composition

How it’s calculated

Fluid = body weight (kg) × duration (h) × sweat factor

Sweat factor ranges from 8‑15 mL/kg/h based on intensity & temperature. Carbs: 30‑60 g/h for moderate, up to 90 g/h for high intensity. Sodium ~500‑800 mg/L of sweat.
