Abstract in brief

  • The study explored the muscle activity of the hamstrings and surrounding muscles during four exercises: leg curl, good morning, glute-ham raise, and Romanian deadlift (RDL).
  • Using surface electromyography, researchers found significant differences in muscle activity between exercises for muscles like the semitendinosus, biceps femoris, and gastrocnemius.
  • The results suggested that the semitendinosus is more active than the biceps femoris across all exercises, with the RDL and glute-ham raise being particularly effective for targeting hamstring muscles.
