When you're an Avenger, training doesn't stop — even amid social distancing!

Jeremy Renner, who plays Hawkeye in the Avengers franchise and the upcoming Disney+ series, shared a TikTok video on Instagram Tuesday of himself continuing his archery training at home, albeit with very different equipment than usual.

"Quarantine training at home ... like an 8 year old 🏹 😅 #hawkeyeathome," Renner captioned the clip, which shows him using a toy bow and arrow set to launch arrows around the house.

"Yeah, baby!" the actor shouts at the end of the clip.

Last week, Renner shared a photo of himself crouching down with the toy bow and arrow alongside a photo of his daughter Ava, who held another bow and had a photo of her dad's face covering her own.

"Another day at the office 🏹🏹 #training," he wrote in the caption.

Renner rang in his 50th birthday on January 7 — which friend and fellow Marvel star Paul Rudd helped celebrate. Rudd, 51, sent Renner a cake with a photo of the duo posing on top, along with the words "Virgins" and "Happy Birthday Jeremy."

According to a screenshot of Renner's story captured by Cinemablend, Renner shared a photo of the cake and added, "love my friends."

Renner stars in the upcoming Hawkeye series on Disney+ along with Hailee Steinfeld.

Steinfeld, 24, recently told People (the TV show!) that she is "honored" to be part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The "Starving" singer plays Renner's protégée Kate Bishop, who also fights crime under the "Hawkeye" name in the comic books.

Of her character, Steinfeld said "she is an incredible character and it's been a really fun journey so far."

The series will also feature Vera Farmiga and Florence Pugh.
