I think horse stance the way I was FORCED to hold it in karate and kung fu is damaging to the knees. I think doing 10 jumps as high as you can, pulling your knees to your ears and then landing into a low wrestling stance, with a straight back, and holding it for 2 minutes.... repeat for three sets.... is awesome.
