Invite you to consult. | Hamstrings The hamstrings are a large group of three separate muscles located in the posterior rear of the thigh. They originate from the bottom of the hip bone and extend to below the knee and work together to extend the hip and flex the knee they correspond to the flexors of the elbow in the upper limb. During running the hamstrings slow down the leg at the end of its forward swing and prevent the trunk from flexing at the hip joint. The three muscles are from medial to lateral semimembranosus semitendinosus and biceps femoris. Biceps femoris is usually the largest hamstring and has two heads the long and short the long head crosses the hip joint to work it. Semitendinosus and semimembranosus are completely synergistic meaning they both do the exact same actions.
