2. Strengthen the muscles around the hips. All the muscles around the body are connected and if one muscle or joint is in pain, it can usually be traced back to another joint or muscle. Every muscle has an opposite muscle that counteracts its movement.

The hip musculature is designed to carry the load of lower body. However, many people do not have the muscle strength in their hips to compensate; hence, the muscles around the knees will take on this strenuous activity of carrying you around all day.

As an alternative, build up the hamstrings as well as glutes if you want to build those muscular tissues and begin to take stress off the knees. A fantastic physical exercise to build up the glutes are actually called clams. Lay on the ground on your side with your legs stacked on top of each other. Bend your knees and hips slightly at a 45 degree angle. Your knees should be in front of you. With your heels together, open your hips till you feel your glutes contract and repeat.

This workout is going to completely enhance and strengthen your glutes until you perform more advanced exercises.

3. Stretch. Your muscles are all connected and when one muscle is tight, it can create discomfort at the joint. Stretch the quads in order to release the tension. There are multiple quad stretches, but the most common one is grabbing your foot from behind and holding the stretch. There are other advanced stretches, but this one will suffice.

In a matter of a week, if these three techniques are performed on an every day basis, your bad knees are going to develop into active knees.
