  • The Perk name is a reference to the 2009 film, Zombieland. More specifically, the Rules of Zombieland, where Cardio is the first rule, as it allows one to evade zombies more effectively.
  • Rule 1: Cardio being under fortitude makes sense, as in real life, sustained cardio actives requires good aerobic endurance.
  • If combined with Beer, having Rule 1: Cardio maxed out enables one to regenerate stamina while sprinting.
