The aspects of your programme that are indistinguishable from the teams you beat probably aren't the reason you won. Everyone squats, hinges, pushes, pulls, does some kind of power work etc. Yet there are still huge disparities between teams. It's probably not the weights...
Yet whenever a big team presents on their successes of their programme probably 80+% of the time is spent talking about the stuff that everyone is already doing. The stuff that is unique or on the margins.... Thats probably where the difference lies.
In investing people talk about the price being "baked in". What you're doing might be smart, but if everyone is doing it, the advantage gets competed away, so it doesn't make a difference anyway. It's only the stuff you know or do that gives you the edge...
I'm not saying it doesn't matter... BUT every time I got embarrassed by the All Blacks as a coach, my hunch is it wasn't because their weights programme was proportionally superior to ours. This is why the sport coaches, recruiters, GMs and CEOs get paid 




These people in the organisation and the ones pulling the levers of change. My job was just to try and get them there in one piece and eek out a percent here or there.
