In order to be well defined, how much water intake should one have per day?

a gallon is usally sufficent

my rule is 1 gallon per gram of protein per pound u take in
1g per lb. = 1 gallon
1.5 per lb. = 1.5 gallons
2 per lb. = 2 gallons
Well u get the picture

never heard that but makes sense for healthy kidneys

Doggcrapp said it one time and it seemed to make sense to me so I adopted that rule.

I've read that if you're an athlete and you take supplements and creatine then 120 ounces a day is good.

120oz. is almost a gallon so that would be correct in some situations

Athlete is such a broad term. I am a serious lifter and i do cardio, but I don't consider myself an athlete. IMO, if you are a true athlete, you will most likely be drinking more than a gallon, possibly 2.

Yeah most "atheletes" who are constantly pushing their body, instead of a day centered by a hour workout, will be putting so much liquid in their body its hard to keep track.
