The Daily Check-In 4.28

Add something new to your routine.

Try low-impact HIIT.

Today’s Tabata Time by Equinox routine strings together low-impact moves for a high-intensity workout. Challenge yourself to push through every single squat, lunge, push-up, and plank variation—even when you think your chest and quads have had enough.

EAT

Sheet-pan your shrimp.

Baking sheets are the workhorse of the kitchen. You can cook, mix, and serve everything on them, with minimal clean-up afterwards. This filling, low-carb dinner features the protein-rich shrimp you probably have in the freezer, fennel, briny olives, and plenty of lemon. Arugula gets mixed in at the end, but you can use kale or any other hardy greens.

DE-STRESS

Tie-dye, naturally.

Research published in SAGE Open states that the colors we surround ourselves with have a significant effect on our emotional state. Case in point: “I am tie-dye obsessed right now and have taken to knotting a cotton tie-dye T-shirt with any solid legging for my work/workout-from-home look,” says Annie Walters, Equinox’s VP of retail. “I have also been loving color while being in quarantine. I find wearing color instead of my typical black or charcoal lifts my mood.” 

CONNECT

Have a double date.

Simply hanging out with other couples can act as a mirror for your own relationship, making you feel grateful for what you have. “A number of couples we talked to would say after a double date, ‘I’m glad we have the relationship we do,’” says Geoffrey Greif, Ph.D., author of Two Plus Two: Couples and their Couple Friendships.

On the flip side, it can expose things you may want more of (like physical affection or verbal compliments).

Greif and his wife have been having twice-weekly Zoom dates with another couple to chat through everything from coping during quarantine to what they’re each cooking these days. “It’s a chance to see how other couples you respect are handling things,” Greif says.
