The Hamstring has three main muscles, the semimembranosus, the semitendinosus and biceps femoris.

Whilst the semimembranosus, the semitendinosus only cross one joint, the biceps femoris crosses two joints.

In addition, the combined semitendinosus and biceps femoris (long head) footprint on the ischial tuberosity is smaller in length (3.9 ± 0.4 vs. 4.5 ± 0.5 cm) and may also be smaller in height (1.4 ± 0.5 vs. 1.2 ± 0.3 cm) than the semimembranosus footprint (Feucht et al. 2014).

The hamstring is actually comprised of three muscles: the biceps femoris, the semitendinosus, and the semimembranosus.

Since the moment arm lengths for hip extension appear to be similar between the semitendinosus, semimembranosus and biceps femoris (long head)(Dostal et al. 1986), this may imply that one muscle in each subgroup is better suited for producing large excursions with high joint angular velocities while the other may be better suited for performing very forceful muscular contractions over short excursions (see review by Lieber and Fridén, 2000).

Ono et al. (2010) found that EMG amplitude of the semitendinosus was significantly higher than that of the semimembranosus during eccentric leg curls and Kubota et al. (2007) found that muscular soreness and signal intensity was greatest in the order semitendinosus > biceps femoris (long head) > semimembranosus following eccentric leg curls.

Ono et al. (2011) assessed hamstrings EMG amplitude during a stiff - legged deadlift and reported that the EMG amplitudes of the biceps femoris and of the semimembranosus were significantly higher than that of the semitendinosus.

Dostal et al. (1986) reported that the moment arms were 5.6 cm for the semitendinosus, 4.6 cm for the semimembranosus, and 5.4 cm for the biceps femoris (long head).

Dostal et al. (1986) reported that the moment arms were 0.5 cm for the semitendinosus, 0.3 cm for the semimembranosus, and -0.6 cm for the biceps femoris (long head).

From the limited literature, it is generally apparent that the biceps femoris (long head) and the semimembranosus have the greatest muscle cross-sectional area, while the biceps femoris (short head) and semitendinosus generally have the smallest muscle cross-sectional area (Pohtilla et al. 1969; Ito et al. 2003; Woodley and Mercer, 2005).

The biceps femoris (long head), the semitendinosus, and the semimembranosus are all bi-articular (two - joint) muscles.

When it does have a separate tendon, the proximal tendon of the semimembranosus is located anteriorly and laterally to the shared tendon of the semitendinosus and biceps femoris (long head)(Miller et al. 2007; Philippon et al. 2014; Feucht et al. 2014).

They are usually divided into two groups, the lateral hamstrings (biceps femoris long and short heads) and the medial hamstrings (semitendinosus and the semimembranosus) on the basis of their locations on the rear part of the thigh.

The semitendinosus and the semimembranosus are located on the medial part of the thigh.

Additionally, some studies have found that the semimembranosus also shares this same tendon (Neuschwander et al. 2015).

There are two major groups within the hamstrings: the medial hamstrings (semitendinosus and semimembranosus) and the lateral hamstrings (biceps femoris short head and long head).

The medial group is made up of the semitendinosus and the semimembranosus.

From the limited literature, it is apparent that the biceps femoris (long head) and the semimembranosus are the heaviest muscles, while the biceps femoris (short head) and semitendinosus are usually the lightest when comparing within studies, although there are discrepancies (Wickiewicz et al. 1983; Ito et al. 2003; Horsman et al. 2007; Ward et al. 2009; Kellis et al. 2012).
