Routine:
Stretch before rising: pelvic tilts and circles, side to side knee twists, spine lengthening, knees to chest, knees bent, ankle on knee, raise knee by pulling from behind.
Stretches after rising:
Ear to shoulder, neck range of motion, bend from waist as able, lunge and hold. Reaching as high as possible

Ice sore points lying flat in back, knees bent, then alternate pulling knes to chest and straightened leg.

No kidding, these hurt when you start, and some motions may be puny. But the more you do, the easier they get, and eventually you look forward to loosening up.

Also - move and loosen up at least 5-10 minutes every hour. I pace and wriggle my way through Zoom meetings, take walking talks, even sometimes stand when I sew.

Take NSAID or Tylenol if you can. Use NSAID rubs (like Voltaren) on sore spots.
