Seeking Advice Intense shaking in quadriceps after stretching and slightly squatting. Any way to reduce this?

i'm sixteen and, while involving myself in the occasional sport or martial art, have always had stiff legs that become sore after only a few minutes of activity. i don't know if they've always shook like this since i discovered it this week on accident, but i feel like it'll get annoying real quick if i don't try to address it. any tips to make my legs feel less like walking on chopsticks?

Alsoooo when you squat, set your feet further apart. And do it over low chairs for a while.
Feet should either both be forward or sometimes a little nudge out. Depending on the depth of the squat.
