Upper Body workout for Lower Back Protection

I'm dealing with a sore lower back today, after I slipped and fell. I'm moving carefully and resting to let my back heal, but I still feel well overall and thought I could still do an upper body lifting workout today if I chose the exercises carefully. I was inspired by all of the workouts here that I've done over the years, but I wrote up my own workout specific to my current needs. I thought I'd share for anyone who may be interested, knowing that low back pain is pretty common.

The exercises avoid a bending over position, and are grouped to minimize getting up and down from the ground. They're also in three levels--Level 1 is standing or sitting. Level 2 is lying flat on the ground, if getting down to that position is not a problem. Level 3 is kneeling on hands and knees (with a neutral spine). Skip Levels 2 and 3 if those positions hurt.
