How to use "Hamstring" in context?
When most people think of the hamstring, they automatically think of the muscle in the back of the thigh. However, the hamstring actually includes two other muscles- the biceps femoris and the semimembranosus. These muscles work together to drag the leg towards the body, and they are especially important when performing squats, deadlifts, and other compound exercises.
Hamstring injuries are relatively common, and they can be caused by a variety of factors. Hamstring strains occur when the hamstring muscles become overloaded and exceed their capacity. Hamstring strains can also be caused by overuse, which is often the result of intensive exercise regimens.
