Overview

The seated hamstring is an exercise targeting the hamstrings, particularly the biceps femoris. It is a simple exercise that can be performed with just a chair. To do the seated hamstring, sit on a chair with your feet flat on the floor and your knees bent. Place your hands behind your head and lean back slightly. Keeping your back straight, raise your legs up until they are parallel to the floor. Hold for a second, then lower your legs back down. Repeat for 10-12 reps.
