Hamstring Overview. The hamstrings are a collection of three muscles located in the back of the thigh that are responsible for bending or flexing the knee.he hamstring muscle fibers gradually become tendon fibers near the knee to attach to bone. One can appreciate the thick tendon bands when feeling behind the knee joint. The hamstring muscle is balanced by the quadriceps muscles that are located on the front of the thigh and cause the knee to extend.
This tendon continues below the patella to connect to the tibia. These muscles extend, or straighten, the knee. The hamstrings are the muscles on the back of the thigh. This muscle group is composed of the biceps femoris (outside), the semimembranosus, and the semitendinosus (inside).
