Is it possible to do squats with a pulled hamstring?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Yes, it is possible to do squats with a strained hamstring, but it may be painful as the hamstring is also used to perform a squat. I would recommend allowing the hamstring to heal prior to doing squats or else you may have prolonged pain.
