Without Beck firing on all cylinders, the Ospreys, who lifted the RaboDirect PRO12 crown in 2012, failed to reach the play-offs but he's determined to ensure the region hit the ground running next term.
"I've not had the best run with injuries since the start of the year though so it's best that I'm able to sort it all out now and have a good pre-season," he said.
"I don't want to become known as one of those players who are always injured. I want to play regularly and try to fulfil the potential that the coaches think I've got.
"People say I'm 23, I'm only young, but when you think about it I played my first game for the Ospreys when I was only 17 so I've had a good six years of it. It's important to me that I have a good season.
"I didn't really kick-on last season from where I got to in 2011/12 so I'm looking forward to getting started again and putting the last few months behind me.
"The Rabo is getting a lot tougher every year. Look at what Treviso have brought to the competition and then you have the Scottish teams strengthening as well, getting better and better.
"It's a difficult competition where every game matters throughout the season, and everybody can beat each other. That makes it an exciting competition to be playing in as you know you can't take your foot off the gas or you'll pay for it."
