Congratulations 🎉 to TCSC Kamloops' latest member, Jeff Berezowski, joining the elite club of “2000 Level” in our #JUSTSHOWUP program!

He may not always be on time… but he always shows up. We’re lucky to have you as such a big part of our community. 👊🔥
Get to know Jeff!
When did you first join TCSC?
Oh man .... McGill gym in the latter days of that location 2012? 2013?
What are your favorite favorite movements?
Anything pressing - jerk- cleans .
What are your least favorite movements?
Deadlift and deadlift and a twist of lunges
What inspired you to start your fitness journey at TCSC?
Close to my work- not sure what really got me into it. I did work on Bartletts and Mira/Sean s cars at my shop but cant recall if that was the spin off to me going there or vise versa. Â I do remember running out of gas on one of my first trips to the gym and I walked up McGill ring road and old coach Stephan was biking to the gym and we met that way. Just being healthier and cross training as I liked to play numerous sports and enabling my body to keep up with the kids at school to .
Do you remember your very first workout at TCSC?
Negative- i do remember my frustrations with double unders and it took until an open work out and one on one with Sean at laval location to get them the morning of the workout .
What’s your favorite benchmark workout?
Yikes - not sure
If you had a "Hero" WOD named after you, what would it look like?
The " Â punctual " Â - or the " sheriff " ... partners would have to count out loud for their mate , and critique their standards throughout lol.
Would prob be cleans , or press something , with row , and push up etc .
Do you have a go-to pre-workout meal or snack?
Roll out of bed and drive to gym - no time for snacks.
What is your favorite/most memorable TCSC event you've participated in?
Probably when Anna and I were first through most of the competition until boom Kent unveiled a double points workout as the last one and we fell to fourth place ... ( Some grey area with the lunging standards of a couple other teams).. heartbreak !
What is your go-to pump up song?
OH Man, music has been on in the background so I have a vast appreciation for a number of tunes...
I would say roxette - joyride , just lingers from my teenage years - montel Jordan this is how we do it. Cotton eyed Joe- rednex ... modern one - can't find the name - blazers used it a couple years ago as their theme song ... Â
What keeps you coming back after 2000+ workouts?
Trying to offset my sugar and goodies intake ... I like treats !!!
What advice would you give to new members?
Has to become part of a routine - or with all the distractions in life - easy to get out of it .. and buy a hot tub ...
