Start your yoga with sukshma kriya and if you r also doing cross leg sitting posture, then go for shishu palan warm up before doing a cross leg sitting Asan.

I'm working with the fitness industry .....previouly you are doing squats at gym but you are not doing only squats...you were doing many legs workout including squats....that's why your muscular strength was increased that time to highest level.... but now as we know gyms are closed for home workout please do some basic warm up before you are doing any exercise.....and a stretching after workout finished
Next Steps
for lower body workout include lunges....hip thrust....kick backs n all not only squats

✔️Make sure to do warm up before compound exercise
✔️Check your posture while doing squat
✔️You can start with mini squat first and then see how the pain is and then.progressively you can go for full squat
✔️BASIC SQUAT:-
Start with your feet slightly wider than hip-width apart.
Keep your chest up, engage your abdominals, and shift your weight onto your heels as you push your hips back into a sitting Position.
Lower your hips until your thighs are parallel or almost parallel to the floor
Next Steps
Even then if your pain is not reducing please consult physiotherapist.
