The hamstring and quadriceps muscles work closely together. It is a very close relationship with these muscles often tag-teaming to perform functional movements simultaneously.
‘Just about every athlete relies on strong hamstrings. These muscles are responsible for bending your knees. If they’re strong, you can jump high, run fast and accelerate with explosive power. With well-developed hamstrings, you can maintain good posture and prevent leg injuries.’ (source: Livestrong)
