Vital Spy: Tender Greens

Vital Juice: Thirst for a Healthy Life

Whether you’ve waited on the Culver City line or dined at the hip WeHo location, chances are you know about LA’s farm-to-table salad sensation Tender Greens. (The next location: Sunset & Vine.) Founders Erik Oberholtzer, David Dressler and Matt Lyman shared their LA weekend plans:

Matt and Erik meet in Marina Del Rey, and bike the Palos Verdes loop. When he’s not on the road, Matt cycles at the Encino Velodrome.

David’s favorite trail is Westridge-Canyonback. “The views are incredible, and it’s usually deserted on weekdays,” says David. “Two trails run parallel to each other: one relatively flat, and a hilly, rocky path that’s a really fun and gnarly workout.”

At Equinox Santa Monica, Erik takes Power Yoga and kettlebell core and conditioning. When he’s not at the gym, he hikes Mt. Baldy. “It’s challenging, and gets more into mountaineering,” says Erik.

“I go to LGO [La Grande Orange] quite a bit for breakfast,” says Erik. “I get their Venice Burrito with egg whites and tofu chorizo. It’s clean, healthy and good.” 2000 Main St., Santa Monica, (310) 396-9152, MAP
