Does anyone know an exercise for upper hamstrings... just underneath the tush? I'm doing straight-leg deadlifts, but was wondering if there was something else I can add.

I currently do lunges, squats, leg presses, and sitting leg curls (no lying leg curl machine at my gym) for surrounding areas, but they do very little for upper hamstrings.

Nice to see you back...

Try good mornings or even hyperextensions.
