Enter the body weight (lbs) and the exercise time (min) into the Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Fluid Ounces from Galpin Equation. 

Fluid Ounces from Galpin Equation Formula

FO = W / 30 *T/15

Variables:

  • FO is the Fluid Ounces from Galpin Equation ((oz of fluid))
  • W is the body weight (lbs)
  • T is the exercise time (min)

To calculate Fluid Ounces from Galpin Equation, divide your body weight by 30, then multiply by the exercise time over 15.

How to Calculate Fluid Ounces from Galpin Equation?

The following steps outline how to calculate the Fluid Ounces from Galpin Equation.


  1. First, determine the body weight (lbs). 
  2. Next, determine the exercise time (min). 
  3. Next, gather the formula from above = FO = W / 30 *T/15.
  4. Finally, calculate the Fluid Ounces from Galpin Equation.
  5. After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.

Example Problem : 

Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.

body weight (lbs) = 200

exercise time (min) = 30
