He’s just finishing a 7-part series on his blog on patellofemoral rehabilitation  for anterior knee pain. His most recent and last post discusses using Thera-Band resistance while performing leg press or squats:

“…do you still want to squeeze that ball between your knees and emphasize hip adduction and internal rotation?  I would actually recommend just the opposite.  I frequently use a piece of Thera-Band (or even those new [loops] that Thera-Band just started making) around the patient’s knees during exercise.  This will require the patient to isometrically control the hip from adducting and internally rotating while performing mini-squats, wall squats, leg press, and other sagittal plane exercises.”
