Just do not do what is advised in that video. Do not start by bending at the knees. Do not move your knees forward. Start by hingeing at the hip and sitting back. Keep yur shpulders over your ankles. Keep your back straight and your head level, but keep going down until your hips go below parallel to your knees, or as close as you can manage.

The vido is a quarter squat performed with bad form.
