Hamstrings Exercises
79 hamstrings exercises with photo demos and step-by-step instructions.
Hamstrings have two functions — hip extension and knee flexion — so a complete program needs both. Romanian deadlifts and stiff-leg deadlifts dominate the hip-extension end; lying and seated leg curls target knee-flexion. Pair them in the same session 2× per week, 12-18 total sets.
