Following his harrowing snowplow accident earlier this year, Jeremy Renner is celebrating a major milestone in his recovery.
"The Avengers" actor shared a video of himself doing an incline workout on Instagram Tuesday. Renner vigorously skipped his way down a long driveway and later ran up the same road.
“Today marks the day on 10 months of recovery …. First attempt at any of this activity (especially at steep grade) and was brought to tears of joy, hopefulness, and gratitude for all your support along with my family and friends,” Renner captioned the post. “I keep pushing for many reasons, but you are my fuel 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 #loveandtitanium”
Renner’s recovery milestone comes a week after the “Mayor of Kingstown” star opened up about his healing process from the New Year’s Day accident that left him with several broken bones. In an Instagram post, Renner shared a selfie of himself in a mask as he underwent what appeared to be red-light therapy.
"I have been exploring EVERY type of therapy since Jan 14th," Renner wrote, adding that he’d undergone "countless hours of physical therapy, peptide injections, iv drips and pushes, stem cell and exosomes, red light / IR therapy, hyperbaric chamber 2.0 atmospheres, cold plunge, and the list goes on and on.”
But "my greatest therapy has been my mind and the will to be here and push to recover and be better…. Be exceptional… I feel it's my duty to do so," Renner continued. "Not to squander my life being spared, but to give back to my family, friends, and all of you whom have empowered me to endure."
In January, Renner suffered blunt chest trauma and orthopedic injuries after being crushed under a 14,000-pound snowplow near his home in Nevada. The actor had been attempting to help his nephew with a car issue by pulling his nephew's car out of the snow using his PistenBully snowcat. Renner craned his body out of the large vehicle to check on his nephew, without setting the parking brake, and with a missed step, fell under the tracks of the moving vehicle.
The accident resulted in more than 30 broken bones and a collapsed lung among other injuries. "It felt like someone took the wind out of you," said Renner in an April interview with Diane Sawyer. "I could see my eye with my other eye. I just remember seeing stars and a tar line in my other eye."
Renner has been active amid his recovery this year, making appearances at events such as the Los Angeles premiere for his Disney+ series "Rennervations" in April and an Arizona fan convention in June.
"This show set the milestone for me to get better, to make sure that all of our hard work wasn't for nothing," Renner told USA TODAY at the "Rennervations" premiere. "There was no alternative. So for me, it was easy. There was somewhere to go, somewhere to point and I had a lot of love."
