The Hamstrings attach at the hip and knee joint. This means they contribute to movements both at the knee (knee flexion) and hip (hip extension).

This is important to understand when it comes to the amount of force the Hamstring not only produces but also absorbs.

Studies show that the most common hamstring strains occur during the eccentric phase. (when the leg is flexed at the hip and leg extended at the knee.) If your quads are too strong, or on the flip side your hamstrings are too weak—when you are required to produce high forces into extension eg, sprint, kicking, dancing, etc your ability to control the movement is not sufficient, resulting in a hamstring strain.

This is why eccentric hamstring strength is important in preventing hamstring strains. In saying that, it is important to explore different movements and find what works best for you based on what your training/sport requires of you.

Shown are some different exercises that will help to activate the hamstrings whilst lengthen (eccentric loading). It is important to work within your available hamstring flexibility. Repetitions for these will be a based on your ability and injury history.
