Jeremy Renner shared a video of himself walking on a treadmill nearly three months after he was seriously injured in a snowplow accident.
On Sunday, the “Hawkeye” star posted a clip on instagram captioned, “Now is the time for my body to rest and recover from my will.” In the video, Renner walks slowly on the treadmill and explains to someone that using the machine is like “having a cane” that supports 60% of your weight.
Multiple outlets have reported that the exercise equipment in the clip is an “antigravity treadmill,” a device used in physical therapy to help patients regain their ability to walk.
On January 17, Renner announced that he had been released from the hospital after he was crushed by his own snowplow near his Lake Tahoe-area home on New Year’s Day. The 52-year-old Marvel actor previously said that he broke more than 30 bones in the accident.
“The morning workouts, the resolutions, everything changed this particular new year…. Spawned from tragedy for my entire family, and quickly focused on uniting actionable love,” Renner wrote Jan. 21 in instagram.
“I want to thank EVERYONE for your messages and consideration for me and my family…. Much love and appreciation to all of you. These…bones will be repaired, strengthened, as the love and bond with family and friends deepens. Love and blessings to all of you.”
