Hamstring Exercises

Hamstrings are the back of your thigh. They bend your knee and, more importantly for lifting, drive your hips forward, which is what every deadlift and hip hinge trains.

Start the Romanian deadlift lighter than your other lifts. 95 lb done properly is enough to leave you sore for two days. A seated hamstring curl at 30 to 40 lb covers the knee-bend side.
