On average, a person uses about 10-15% of their lung capacity during normal, relaxed breathing. This is known as tidal volume, which typically ranges from 500 to 600 milliliters in adults. During physical activity or deep breathing exercises, lung capacity can increase significantly, allowing for greater oxygen intake. Factors such as fitness level, lung health, and body size can affect how much lung capacity is utilized.
