Hamstrings exercises
Leg curls and hip hinges, split by where the load falls.
Hamstrings exercises
Hamstrings work in two different ways: bending the knee and extending the hip. A plan with nothing but Romanian deadlifts covers one and leaves the other out. Both families are here, and every entry names the machine or bar it needs, so substituting in a gym with no leg curl is direct.
