Deadlifts destroy them. They are the major power movers for the clean and snatch. The hamstrings are huge rubber bands that when loaded give you all the power you need to lift heavy crap off the ground. Sitting in office chairs all day essentially destroy our ability to generate force, by way of shortening the most powerful muscle group in our body. Proper and frequent mobilization of your hamstrings is absolutely vital to lifting your maximum potential. The Hamstring Band Mobility Stretch is one of the most effective mobilization tools to get back that lost power.
