Somewhere close to 32oz. of liquid, but not more.

Answer:

Between 32 to 40 ounces of the beverage, which is approximately 4 or 5 cups.

Explanation:

To rehydrate an athlete after vigorous exercise, the person should drink 16 to 20 ounces of fluid for every pound lost during the exercise. In this case, the athlete lost 2 pounds, so the recommended dose would be the double (32-40oz) amount of beverage.
