One leg squat and exercises good for knees

Although it's been several years since I needed to do knee rehab, I still look around for new ideas for strengthening muscles related to knees.  Here are a few videos by an Aussie, Tim Keeley, of Physio Fitness that are not only good for knee rehab but also good for older skiers who want to strengthen muscles that help support the knee.

The one-leg ball squat is something I haven't seen before.  It's nice that he demonstrates both easier and harder ways to make use of the exercise.  He also shows what to avoid.  The BOSU and a stability ball were the first items that I got for home use during knee rehab.
