Step by Step

If you need to improve flexibility in your knees then this is an excellent group of exercises
Remember these exercises should be pain free during after and the next day.
The most that you should feel is a strong stretch sensation.
Each exercise should be held for 20 to 30 seconds at the end of the range that doesn’t increase pain levels
You should aim to perform all of these exercises between 4 to 6 times per day
Flexion
Sitting on a chair, try sliding your heel back as far as you can so that your knee is bent. You can use your other leg to help push it further back if required
Extension
Put your foot up on a stool sitting in a chair. Allow your knee to hang in a straight position and apply downward pressure with your hand above your kneecap to give an extra stretch if needed
Flexibility takes time to establish so be patient as it could takes several weeks to achieve improvements.
