Three ways Aegis helps

The Aegis advantage

One coach dedicated to you. The entire Aegis system behind them.

Every Aegis coach brings proven experience and a defined area of expertise. They also train inside David DeMesquita’s methodology, use the Aegis case library and AI knowledge system, and can bring David directly into the strategy when a case requires his perspective.

Your coach remains your coach. They are simply never forced to solve a difficult case alone.

  • Weekly 1:1 development with David or a lead coach Every week
  • David brought into the strategy when a case demands it Case escalation
  • The Aegis case library and AI knowledge system Institutional knowledge

How coaching works

A weekly coaching loop, not a PDF and a check-in reminder.

Understand

Your coach reviews your goals, history, schedule, symptoms, training, nutrition, recovery, and the variables previous plans may have missed.

Build

Nutrition, training, supplementation, and recovery are built around the person in front of us.

Review

Each week, your coach studies the response, not just whether you followed the plan.

Adjust

Changes are made when your data and feedback justify them, and every change has a reason.

Questions

Worth asking before you book.

What does coaching cost?

It depends on the coach and the track. Coaching starts at $400 a month on every track, and David's own coaching starts at $1,000 a month. Every coach's starting price is shown on their page before you book anything.

How long until I see results?

Honest answer: it depends what's underneath. Some clients feel a difference in energy and recovery within weeks. Body composition and competitive outcomes take longer, and health cases that have been building for years take the time they take. We won't promise a twelve-week transformation, and we'd be wary of anyone who does.

Do you work with enhanced athletes?

Yes. Aegis isn't anti-PED; Aegis is anti-recklessness. Our role is education, honest risk, and coaching that never uses more compounds as a substitute for better coaching. The decision is always yours.

Is Aegis a medical service?

No. We coach nutrition, training, supplementation, and recovery within that scope, and we help you understand your health information. When something needs a licensed clinician, we say so, and Novus MD is one place clients can turn.

What if I'd rather work with David?

His page shows current availability truthfully. If he has openings and you're a fit, you can book. If not, Find Your Coach will show you who on the team is closest to what you need, and David is involved in every coach's development weekly.
