ACCURACY, WHEN IT COUNTS.
ByI hope that none of you have gotten complacent of late with the attention here slightly straying away from topico numero uno (crosses fingers that not only does Shakira read this blog, she’s impressed by my international flair) – the impending attack. Let us not forget why we toil and sweat so hard folks. How many of you can now, more easily carry a 95-pound body, for a mile, while on a team with three other survivors? Is the big picture getting clearer?!
From our faithful Zombie Survival Guide:
“Studies have show that, given the trauma of battle, the closer a human is to a zombie, the wilder his/her shooting will be (this however, is not applicable to Su – the closer zombies get the more accurate her headshots are). When practicing with your firearms, establish a maximum range for repeated accuracy. Practice against moving targets in ideal (stress-free) conditions. Once that range is fixed, divide it by half. This will be your effective kill zone during an actual attack. Make sure the undead do not move closer than this zone, as your accuracy will erode. If engaging a group, make sure to hit those that enter the zone first before dispatching the others. Do not discount this advice no matter what your previous experience has been. Street-hardened police officers, decorated combat veterans, even “cold-blooded” murderers have ended up as well-chewed meat because they believed in their “nerves” and not their training.”

A Crossfit success story (aka It’s Better Being Strong)
I’m loading Lift 2 at Mammoth with a guy on my left, about 200# or so. He’s not paying attention, doesn’t get seated on the chair properly, and begins to slide off as the chair pulls away. Being the always prepared Crossfitter I am, I reach down with my left hand and drag him back onto the chair. Unfortunately for him, I grab him by the crotch to pull him back on. Fortunately, he realized I saved him and had no problem with my grabbing him by the crotch.

I always knew you had no trouble grabbing the bull by the “horns” Jim.
