I think they should do that on their own. Demonstrate and THEN ask you to do it.
I have seen sumo squat mean two different things. Most often it means legs anywhere from slightly more than hip distance, to more than that, and in order to get crease of hip parallel to the floor, you have to do a slight lean forward while bending at the knees. I can only remember a couple of times I have seen it more like a plie, where you keep the feet wide and the torso upright, so that you aren’t getting as low.
I heard a Barbell Med podcast with a PT who was saying more or less that a lot of PTs don’t know a lot about fitness. Maybe some of it is what kind of experience they have. I can’t believe the comment about someone in their 40’s not being able to fully recover! That’s so discouraging.
