Hi
Thanks for writing to the forum!
While exercising, you have probably injured your medial meniscus of the knee or injured your patella. Another possibility is the knee cap rubbing against the underlying cartilage of femur. Having said this, at times the noise has no pathology behind it. This needs an evaluation by either an orthopedics specialist or by a sports injury specialist.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
