Zombie Survival Tips
Essential Strategies for Surviving the Apocalypse
The Essential Survival Rules
Rule #1: Cardio
Zombies are slow, but relentless. Maintain your physical fitness to outrun them when necessary. Regular cardio training can mean the difference between life and death.
- • Run 3-5 miles daily
- • Practice interval training
- • Build endurance for long-distance travel

Rule #3: Beware of Bathrooms
Zombies can hide in unexpected places. Always clear rooms thoroughly, especially confined spaces like bathrooms and closets.

Rule #4: Travel Light
Only carry essential items. Mobility is more important than comfort. Pack smart and prioritize survival gear over luxury items.
