How To Survive The Zombie Apocalypse Many people proudly boast of their preparations for catastrophic emergency scenarios, such asnuclear war, plague, or - tangentially related - a zombie apocalypse. Yet, it is a safe wager that themajority of these individuals do not really believe they will experience these events in their lifetime,nor have they mentally prepared themselves for their aftermath. When the zombie apocalypse doeshappen, your mental state will factor just as heavily on your survival as will your materialpreparedness. By keeping a bug out bag handy for every member of your family, you not only haveroom to pack clothing and accessories for every individual, but you also increase your carryingcapacity for basic survival gear, and increase your chance to survive zombie apocalypse.Redundancy is important to mitigate the effects of forgotten bags, as storing several of the mostcritical items (knives, medical supplies, fire starters, water purifiers, flashlights, weapons, and muchmore) in multiple packs ensures that you will not lose access to these supplies if one or two zombiesurvival packs are left behind (or their wearer is brought down by the enemy). Day 1: This day will be pure entropy. The horrific realization of what has happened will alternatelydrive the vast majority of us to despair, madness, or some combination of the two possibly leading toan incurable vegetative state. All-out war against an enemy that has risen from death for purelycannibalistic purposes will strain the resolve of all but the hardiest Americans. Because there issimply no telling what situations you will face in the weeks, months, or even years following a zombieuprising, your survival preparations should be undertaken primarily with the following objective:surviving Day 1. If you can survive the earliest stages of the apocalypse and escape the associated carnage, youshould be relatively well situated to weather the remainder of the battle. Your best choice will be tograb whatever supplies you have squirreled away for this day in your zombie survival kit and flee thecity and surrounding suburban areas immediately. Only by reaching a place of relative (if onlytemporary) safety will you be afforded the opportunity to establish a long term plan to ensure that yousurvive zombie apocalypse, and come to terms with what has happened. Then you can make a moreinformed decision to either hunker down and weather the storm, or bug-out in search of a safer andmuch more viable haven. Zombie Apocalypse Survival Workout
