Tips for shredders with bad knees?

I started 30 day Shred last year but hurt my knee badly and couldn't do any exercise for a while. Anyway, I went back to level 1 a while ago with a good pair of trainers and a few modifications and all is going well. It's time to move onto level 2 now and I'm wondering if anyone has any tips for what to watch out for or avoid on this level in order not to hurt my knee again.

For level 1 I don't do the knee circles in the warm up, don't get too deep into any of the lunges and I jog rather than jump on the star jumps and jump rope.

Level 2 seems to have a lot of lunge exercises which I'm a bit worried about. I haven't looked at level 3 yet but am wondering if skipping to that level might be better knee-wise (or would that just be madness).
