A good test of how you will get on with these is putting the toes of one foot a few inches from a wall and trying to push the knee to touch the wall without the heel raising. I have an old injury on one ankle which is causing some problems but my ankle dorsiflexion is pants.

I can move the right foot about 1.5 inches from the wall and still get the knee to touch it and perhaps 1 inch with my left. I find these squats super hard because I cant get my shins over my feet.

My heels come off the floor when my arse is between 20 and 40 cm off the deck.. below that I rest on my heels - above no problem... otherwise it feels odd but do-able (not sure I should do more than one with my back in its present state!)

Do feet stay perpendicular to the wall throughout? And how far down are we going?

I thought the feet should be in line with the thighs.  so not quite perpendicular...

OK more like in a natural standing position, a good way to get the posture is a small jump in the air and land relaxed - a natural unforced standing position with everything in balance and harmony maaaaan
