What Causes Muscle Pain And Stiffness In The Body?

I have muscle pain and stiffness throughout my entire body. Especially my legs and hands. The stiffness and pain increases at night and gets better when I get up and move. When I kneel down it is virtually impossible to get up. Sometimes it even seems the leg muscles are not adhering to the brain signals telling it to get up.
