Watch: McDavid does squats by lifting his dog

Let no one say Connor McDavid is dogging it during the NHL's hiatus.

The Edmonton Oilers superstar shared a video Thursday in which he showed off an unconventional workout routine, doing bodyweight squats with his rather large pup named Lenny.

Lenny made an appearance alongside his best friend last week (albeit in a less active role) when McDavid offered well wishes to fans amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Hey everyone, just a quick message from Lenny and I. Please stay safe out there pic.twitter.com/SsjNsldPIS

The dynamic forward always comes to camp in shape, but if he keeps using Lenny for body squats, he's going to be downright gigantic by the time hockey comes back.
