The hamstring muscle group consists of three separate muscles; the semitendinosus, semimembranosus and biceps femoris. They originate from the lower part of the pelvis and insert into the back of the shin bone. When contracting they mainly bend the knee and extend (straighten) the hip joint.
The three hamstring muscles alone make up the classification of muscles known as the posterior compartment of the thigh. The hamstrings are found medial to the gracilis and adductor magnus, and lateral to the vastus lateralis. The semitendinosus lies superficial to the semimembranosus, though the semimembranosus is so wide that part of it is left uncovered on either side of semitendinosus; these muscles constitute the medial hamstring.
