As kids we are taught that our body is made up of the \u201cshoulders, knees and toes,\u201d but the truth is every part of the body connects with one another. That being said, while there are no stretches specifically meant for the knee joint, strengthening and increasing the flexibility in your hamstrings and quads is the way to go. If you have access to a foam roll, roll out your hamstrings and quads once every other day to loosen the muscle fibers. From there you can use NSCAs (National Sport and Conditioning Associations) conditioning manual to outline what stretches best target the legs which will in turn help with your stiff knee \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Emilie G.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I can\u2019t tell you any moves from the top of my head but .A great way to unstiffen  your knee , is to to bending exercises and make sure you stretch them out lots.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Jennifer Q.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I don\u2019t know the specific case but you should probably work the whole leg for that, even the hips. The knee is an articulation, not a tendom. The tendoms involved in it\u2019s movement are the ones under and above in the leg, so probably it\u2019s the whole extremity that it\u2019s rigid. Always remember to warm up a little first and listen to your body when it tells you you\u2019ve reached your limit \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Lana C.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">It&#39;s important to know where&#x2F;why your knee is stiff.
