    fast forward to 7:45 in that video and he gets right to the point.

    I can see straining my back on that method, no matter how well I try to execute everything that he talks through. I'll keep using the "butt in the seat and walk backwards" method.

    Agree Willtill. Any minor bend in the back could be problematic with the method the video proposes, and I don't trust myself to do it "perfectly". Through many rear tire changes, I'm pretty comfy with laying the old gal over on her side (onto foam padding) and getting her back up again the way you describe.
