There is absolutely no two ways about it, your hamstrings are muscles. His doctor wouldnt have said that the hamstring isnt a muscle, your "m8" wasnt listening. Originally Posted by sgtneo

I guaran-damn-tee you that his doctor did NOT say your hamstring wasn't a muscle. Either his doctor calls it by another name or he misunderstood his doctor. Originally Posted by sgtneo
What is commonly referred to as the "hamstring" is actually three muscles: the semitendinosus, semimembranosus, and biceps femoris. If a doctor doesn't know this, his license should be revoked.
