Do Squats Work Your Hamstrings? In this informative video, we’ll discuss the role of squats in strengthening your hamstrings, especially for cyclists aiming to boost their performance. We’ll break down how squats primarily target the quadriceps and glutes, which are essential for generating power during cycling. While hamstrings do get some engagement during squats, they are not the primary focus of this exercise. Understanding this can help cyclists avoid muscle imbalances that may affect their efficiency and increase the risk of injury. We’ll also introduce alternative exercises that specifically target the hamstrings, which play an important role in cycling. By incorporating hamstring-focused movements into your training routine, you can improve your overall cycling performance. Additionally, we’ll explore variations of squats that can enhance muscle engagement on each leg, mimicking the asymmetrical nature of cycling.
