    4. Why Most Men Can’t Stay Consistent in the Gym

    Why do so many men struggle to stay consistent in the gym—even when they know strength, discipline, and fitness matter? Zach Rippey shares his struggles of staying faithful in the gym. Preston Woody then breaks down the real reason men keep quitting their workouts, why gym consistency starts with identity, and how physical strength can impact your faith, family, leadership, business, confidence, and future. This is more than a conversation about workout plans, supplements, or motivation. It is a powerful discussion about men’s fitness, Christian discipline, identity-based habits, the warrior mindset, and what it takes to become the kind of man who trains because strength is part of who he is. You’ll also hear: • Why many men do not have a discipline problem—they have an identity problem• How pain, insecurity, and weakness can become fuel for transformation• Why physical strength can improve your leadership, confidence, creativity, and family life• How inherited beliefs can act like an invisible “governor” limiting your potential• The question every man should ask about his health, body, and life at age 79 You were not created to stay weak, inconsistent, and frustrated with yourself. You were created to become strong, steward your body, lead your family, serve with energy, and raise the standard for the people around you. Stop negotiating with the version of you that keeps quitting. Get clear on who you are called to become—and attack. Follow The Standard for more powerful conversations about men’s fitness, Christian leadership, discipline, purpose, identity, faith, and becoming the man God designed you to be. Share this episode with a man who is ready to stop starting over and become fit for a king.

    3. Red Flags, Green Flags & the Truth About Our Marriage | Preston Woody & Dakota Woody

And is having a best friend of the opposite sex ever a good idea? In this fun episode of The Standard, Preston Woody sits down with his wife, Dakota, and Zach Rippey for a game of Red Flag or Green Flag—covering joint finances, public correction, location tracking, Snapchat, opposite-sex friendships, phone access, apologies, punctuality, and plenty more.

    2. You’re Not Broken. You’re in the Wrong State

    You are not broken. You may simply be showing up in the wrong state. In this episode of The Standard, Preston Woody explains why better strategies, more motivation, and another self-help video will not fix the deeper issue if your internal state remains the same. Using the story of a lawnmower that would not start because it had not been primed, Preston reveals how many high performers mistakenly believe something is wrong with them when they are actually operating from a weak, passive, or disconnected state. You’ll learn the four human states—weak, passive, present, and peak—and how each one affects your relationships, leadership, productivity, creativity, faith, and ability to enjoy your life. Preston also breaks down how your language, physiology, and focus can help you shift your state, become more present, develop self-control, and consistently show up as the person you were created to be.

    1. Confidence Won’t Save You but Courage Will - with Zach Rippey

    Preston Woody had the title, the platform, and the ministry career he had dreamed about since childhood—but beneath the surface, he was battling depression, anxiety, internal conflict, and the realization that something had to change. In the first episode of The Standard, Preston shares why he walked away from pastoral ministry, how that decision affected his identity and family, and how a three-day trip into the woods helped lead him into a new calling: building the lives of men. Preston and Zach Rippey also unpack the difference between confidence and courage, why most men do not have a discipline problem but a clarity problem, and how the standards you accept shape the life you eventually live. This conversation is for anyone who feels stuck, out of alignment, afraid to make a necessary change, or unsure of what comes next.
