I don't want to sound condescending, but the answer to your question really lies in the question itself. I'm afraid I will sound like a proper tool essentially telling you to do exactly what you asked, but there's only so many ways I can say it. Here it goes.
Log into our site. At the top of the site there's a Login button.
Go to the Download page. The link is at the top of the site.
Download Akeeba Backup Professional. The links are on the page.
Then go to your site and install it like any other extension.
At the top of our site there's a Support drop-down. Click on it, then click on Videos. There is a video tutorial showing all that. It's from the Joomla 3 days, but there's really nothing that's changed beyond the way Joomla looks.
