Description of exercise Hamstring burners are a popular exercise that targets the muscles in the back of the thigh, known as the hamstrings. To perform this exercise, you will need a resistance band or a piece of equipment that provides resistance. Start by lying on your stomach with your legs straight and the resistance band attached to your feet. Engage your core and lift your legs off the ground, keeping them straight. Slowly bend your knees and bring your heels towards your buttocks, then straighten your legs back out.
