Well, yes its different depending on how much you weigh, activity level, illnesses, etc. It can be harmful to drink too much water; however, that is very dificult to do. So, my weight training coach suggested to me to not worry about it and to drink around 100 oz of water a day. Granted, I am very active with around four hour basketball practices a day.

That's true with every single nutritional fact in the world (calories, carbs, amount of excersize needed). Its an average.

So how much should we be drinking, according to her? I really doubt it is bad. But it is different for everyone the exact amount. It depends on how much you sweat. I just went to Mexico to build houses, and i was drinking over 2 gallons of water a day, just to stay semi-hydrated.Your urine should be just about clear, but you should not be going really frequently. Often, but not overly often.
