Knee up stretching exercise:
- You can get started with your feet together
- Lift one knee and grab it with both hands.
- If you do not have a good balance then you can hold onto a chair.
- Keep your back straight while you do this exercise.
- Hold your knee for 10 seconds then switch.
Standing Quad stretching exercise:
This exercise is important in warming up the large muscles of the thigh before exercise or sports.
- Bring your hands behind your back, roll your shoulders down, and gently stretch over.

Tricep stretching exercise:
