It does bother me just a tiiiiiny bit that he describes the setup as a squat, his knees are WAY too wide for a safe squat.

Safe is relative to an individual body. For me this position would be safe now; in fact we practice overhead squats against a wall in exactly this position 
I hate them because they expose lack of shoulder mobility like nothing else Iāve done!
The same would NOT have been true a year ago! I would have fallen backwards the moment I started!

I always feel more comfortable having someone show me how to use equipment. I tend to use it regularly afterward, where the times Iāve tried to teach myself I just feel weird and stop using them

Thatās fair. I injured myself by squatting too low, too wide and with too heavy weight. Six years later and my SI joint is still messed up.

Oy, SI injuries are no fun. I injured mine years ago and it took quite a long time to regain stability! I vividly remember my doctor trying to avoid being explicit in some of the early restrictions by saying, āNo, erm, pelvic fun.ā Ummmmmā¦

It was an L&I claim, too, and I reinjured because I was told I could go back to all activity from before. They did not anticipate me playing racquetball.

Neighbourhood walk Monday, Tuesday and walk to and back husbandās birthday dinner Wednesday. Nothing yesterday and my back felt it so I might try a gentle yoga video if I can find a good prenatal one tonight. Must really book into a class soon but Iām too good at procrastinating.

Walked from home to the train station and from train station to the office. Need to get consistent on taking the stairs as my office is on the second floor.

Oof, I went to Pound class (drumming fitness) yesterday after not going for a month (first I was on vacation, then the instructor was on vacation). Everything now hurts. Use it or lose it is real!
Today itās supposed to be 55 and my garden org is having a seed swap thatās a fair distance away but I think I am going to walk there and back rather than bus.

Two short walks and the first day of 30 Days of Yoga today. Iād like to keep up with that, though I have no idea where the time is going to come from.

Iām back on 30 days of Yoga too. I fell off the wagon mid last week with my weekday yoga because I got busy with work which is exactly what Iāve been trying to avoid. So having this so that I donāt want to lose my streak helps because brains are weird.
