Arthur G. Scanlan III. My name is Arthur G. Scanlan III. and I am 38 years old. My wife, Kacy Scanlan, and I have 3 children (Aubrey – 16, Brody – 10, and Camryn – 5). I love the outdoors – fishing and hunting. I currently work with Alzheimer’s Services of the Capital Area and the Emerge Center for Children with Autism. I love to work, especially with different community events and helping others. Within the last year, I have ran in two 5k’s (not to mention had never and I mean never done one in my life!!!! Now my son and I both are hooked and loveeeeeee them!) I started out in March of 2023 at 246 lbs. and 34 percent BMI. As of June (a year and two months) I am at 210 to 212 lbs. at 21 percent BMI as of my last imaging in March. I am now a year and two months removed from smoking. I had to choose – it was either the treadmill and bike or smokes. One had to go, and I am so glad you all pushed me and I chose the treadmill. I honestly believe my REGYMEN family saved me and may have just added a few years to my life. This team and family (that’s what everyone at REGYMEN is – family) is so amazingly wonderful, and I can’t even express how indebted I am to this program and the coaches. I genuinely thank you and L from the bottom of my heart. I never would have begun to think the best I could feel would be at almost 40! You have the best team of coaches here, and they each bring something different and unique to the table. I have absolutely loved getting to know each of them. Cook-out soon everyone! Would love to get you, L, and some of the team over to the house and cook and swim one day! We go full on carnivore! Haha
Staff Spotlight
Ryder Babin Hey guys, my name is Ryder Babin. I just recently graduated from East Ascension High School. I played baseball for 14 years of my life from Tee-ball, all the way to high school. I played numerous positions throughout my 14 years, varying from just about anywhere in the infield to strictly being in the outfield my high school career. When I was in 8th grade, I completely tore my ACL around Thanksgiving. This was a major set back considering I had to go to reconstructive surgery a few months later. My surgery on Feb 14, 2020, meant that I wasn’t going to be able to try out for the freshman baseball team in May. I didn’t let this stop me though. I still tried out and did everything my physical therapist told me not to do. I was running, playing different positions, hitting batting practice. I didn’t make the team due to my injury, but got an invitation to come back and try out once I was fully recovered in November. From that day forward, I started working out to get prepared for my try outs coming up, knowing I was going to be at a disadvantage compared to my healthy future teammates. I ended up making the team and worked out with the baseball team and on my own ever since. My hobbies consist of duck and whitetail deer hunting and fishing with my dad. I also have recently taken up golfing whether it’s with my friends or grandpa. I’m the son of Thor Babin and Nikki Girouard. I am now going to school at ITI for instrumentation. I’d have to say my main reason why I love fitness is when you are committed to working out and seeing better results in the gym, it also helps you in the long run as well. It develops a sense of discipline and eliminates bad habits like procrastinating. When I’m constantly going to the gym, I get more out of my days and I’m always in a great mood. I’m very excited to be part of the REGYMEN team because I’m excited to meet all the members and make friends along the way.
