How Vision Quest Works

Test. Train. Transform.
The Three-Step System That Changes Everything.

Most fitness programs skip the first step — they put you in a class before they know anything about your body. At Vision Quest, we start by actually measuring what your body needs. Then we build your training around those findings. Then we track your progress with real data, not guesswork. It is the same system that has shaped elite athletes for over 25 years and it works for anyone with the drive to get better, no matter where they are starting from.

Test Train Transform
Step 01

TEST — Know Your Body

  • DEXA body composition scans, VO2 Max cardio-respiratory testing, Resting Metabolic Rate analysis, and movement screening give us the exact picture of where you are right now.
  • We have tested over 8,000 athletes. That data tells us what works — and what your body specifically needs.
  • Leave with a clear, data-backed roadmap — not guesses, not generic advice.
Step 02

TRAIN — Work With Purpose

  • In-studio cycling and strength training at Highland Park and Chicago — plus live and on-demand virtual classes for wherever life takes you.
  • Fully personalized 1-on-1 coaching, remote or in person — built around your data, your goals, and your real-world schedule.
  • Not a generic formula. Every session is structured around what your test results say your body actually needs.

Step 03

TRANSFORM — Measure the Results

  • Retest every few months and see the actual numbers change — body fat down, strength up, power climbing, VO2 Max improving.
  • This is how you go from "I think it is working" to "I know exactly how much progress I have made."
  • Real data. Real accountability. Results that compound over time — not just during the program.

Vision Quest Coaching is a community of endurance athletes and coaches offering a diverse set of scientifically designed coached cycling, running, swimming and strength workouts. We are constantly looking for ways to improve our endurance, break through physical and mental barriers, and ultimately find success. Here at Vision Quest Coaching we offer the guidance, insight, and instruction to raise your best to a higher level.

“The difference between good and great is not talent – it is measurement and methodology. We give you both.”

– Robbie Ventura, Founder

Vision Quest is awesome. The variety of rides and platform are top notch - and the instructors are all great. Never a dull workout, which is key when doing 3 or 4 rides every week. And responsiveness from the coaches on any topics is immediate - whether coaching, technique or similar questions or just admin stuff, personal attention and quick responses from experts is unique to vision quest. Should be no doubt to sign up for VQ if you are looking to train for bike races or triathlons, or even if you just want to improve your fitness and get in some great workouts.

Richard Radnay R.

My local bike shop referred me to Vision Quest Coaching back in 2010 and I’ve never looked back. VQ taught me how to ride and race a bike and prepared me for some of the hardest amateur cycling events in the world (for example, Haute Route). Along the way, I cultivated many friendships through shared suffering, including some of my closest friends. VQ = Community. While VQ isn’t always perfect, they truly strive to improve their services and see their athletes flourish. They offer in-person and virtual workouts, as well as supplemental services and ride camps. Strongly recommend.

I have worked with Vision Quest off and on for over 20 years. I have gained a huge wealth of knowledge and have especially enjoyed the time I have spent working with VQ coaches and athletes. They have a great group of coaches and an incredible on line virtual platform (Velocity). Robbie Ventura, The father of Vision Quest, is amazing. His motivation and excitement about cycling is truly infectious.

Christina Calvello C.

Training with Vision Quest has been transformative for my cycling! Robbie and the VQ coaches prepared me for every challenge of riding across the USA in 2025 and I continue to train with the online platform. VQ has made training indoors fun. I love Robbie's positivity, the challenging but rewarding workouts and that I can train virtually with friends on the platform. I'm a stronger cyclist because of Robbie and the VQ team!

Karen Mastella K.

I've been associated with Vision Quest Coaching for over 15 years! As an avid cyclist, it has been a key contributor to my cycling goals and experience! Everything is done at a very professional level, including coaching, programs, facilities, etc. Anyone seeking to improve their cycling skills would greatly benefit from VQ!!

Jim Sieber J.

Vision Quest is truly a community, a community that supports all members from the neophyte to the professional athlete. No one is judged and everyone is encouraged by both the coaches and other members. We all strive to become better athletes and have a lot of fun in the process.

Linda Vincent L.

Vision Quest is the best coaching outfit I've ever been involved with. In a "career" of Ironman's, less serious marathons, and now cycling - I promise this team will take care of your needs whether as a pro, or an amateur wanting to get into shape! Robbie's team is seriously fun and can get serious when it's needed!

Todd simmons T.

I worked with VisionQuest for several years of my triathlon journey, helping me to qualify for World Championships along the way. The coaches are caring, knowledgeable and creative. VQ offers top notch professional services while hosting a caring community of amazing athletes at all levels. Special shout out to Coach Janine for the incredible support. Wholly recommend!

Lana Burl L.

Vision Quest has been such a meaningful space for me. I’m really grateful to have a community where people genuinely care about wellness, growth, and supporting one another. It feels grounding and inspiring to be around like-minded people who show up with passion and openness. There’s a real sense of connection here, and it’s been incredibly enriching to be part of it. Vision Quest doesn’t just offer experiences—it cultivates belonging, purpose, and well-being.

Erika Ostrander E.

This place is awesome. They are the most supportive people for all levels of cyclists, triathletes and people like me who just wanted to get better at riding a bike and get a great workout. Full service offerings- they have strength classes and strength equipment and a huge focus on wellness and community. The best!
