ABSTRACT:
A device is disclosed in which a housing is adapted for attachment to an athlete's body or clothing during exercise. Physical data about the athlete is entered via a keypad located on the surface of the device. A calculation process then takes the physical data entered by the athlete and calculates the amount of water being lost through dehydration. This information, along with a graphic display of how much water the athlete should drink, is presented on a screen on the surface of the device.
