Knee Bends
Knee bends in a shallow standing position can improve muscle strength at the top of your thigh. Keep in mind that you should do this exercise only when there is no pain. Avoid it if you still have locking or clicking noises in your injured knee. Stand and rest your hands slightly on a chair or table in front of the body. Both feet should be shoulder-width apart. Bend the knees slowly and squat down as if you are sitting into a chair. Make sure the knees do not go in front of the toes, while your heels should stay on the ground. Slowly raise to the initial position to complete. Do 8 to 10 reps. [4]
