I had my knee replaced in August and had pretty much 98 percent full motion within 2 months. Although..... if I'm stuck in the office for a week or two without any continued PT type exercise, things tighten back up. A bike ride works best for me to stretch things back out, although negative extension still seems to be my biggest hurdle.

Improve your flexibility and range of motion (helps prevent injuries) by doing strength exercises with a full range of motion, unless you are in rehabilitation. Rehab exercises are done to restore your full range of motion. It is a misconception that strength training makes your body's muscles tight and inflexible. This won't happen if you consistently improve your joints' range of motion and perform exercises with full range of motion. You can be strong and flexible. Doing regular stretching and flexibility exercises also improves your range of motion.
