If you find that squats cause you problems, just stick to deadlifts. Deadlifts are fool proof.
Some people need to experiment a lot with technique and shoes to get the squat to work for them, if they have knee issues. But deadlifts will give you more bang for your buck. The heavier loading & high tension created in the muscles & joints will stimulate all sorts of goodness.
