Exercise at least four times a week: push ups, jumping jacks, squats, toe touches, dips, knees to the chest, arm rotations, sit ups, etc. the numbers of how many to do in a set, and how many sets is up to you. (45) minutes of constant working is good.
Stretching before you exercise is very important. Yoga is the best way to stretch.
Breathing: Deep breathing three or four times a day is rejuvenating.
Walking and Running: if space is available, or running in place for (30) minutes is good.
Self Defense: learning some form of self defense, boxing, karate, judo, etc. are most important to protect oneself.
Diet: Vegetarian diets are very important for survival in control units (lock downs), because of the lack of properly cooked foods. Strokes, peptic ulcers, diabetes, hypertension, salmonellosis, stomach cancer, colon cancer, kidney disease, hemorrhoids; are all illnesses that can be produced from a lack of proper dieting. Remember, medical care isn't worthwhile depending on in control units (lock down). A question was once asked: "What do the prisoncrats care about a few sick prisoners?"

Be security minded, avoid imbalances, which result from the taking away of some component necessary to mental stability. In order to restore from imbalance, the missing component must be restored or compensated for. Our brains were created to think right. Falsehood, which is untruth, injustice, or deception produces chemical imbalance in the brain. The proof that humanity is imbalanced is the absence of the three essentials of balance: Freedom, Justice, and Equality. This is due to the oppression and mistreatment of people by one another. But we are made to achieve balance.
Our survival strategy should be like a map. A plan from getting from where we are to where we want to go. Planning strategy is like planning a trip. Our tactics should be the specific things that we must do for survival, to help us get there. Petitions, pressure campaigns, etc. Progress reports, quality reports, assignments, and progress schedules are important for survival in monitoring oneself.
