Go on, list what you do to get those hammies blowing up like a sexc beast.

(End goal being to improve your squat primarily but being able to rip shorts up just by squeezing your legs is a good one too)
 
Personally I use the following 4 exercises:
- Stiff legged deadlifts with toes raised on a plank.
- Lying leg curl.
- Single leg lying leg curl.
- Glute ham raise.

Luckily I've been (relatively) quite strong in the hamstrings. I think because I actually focus on them than an after though on leg day with some half assed leg curls.
 
Glute Ham Raises hurt my knees on the ascent as I try to bring my self back up to the starting position. Any ideas on how to counteract this?
 
Is it a proper GHR machine? My gym doesn't have one, so I've made my own. Put the leg extension on its lowest setting and put a bosu ball in front of it. Rest your knees on the (half) ball and hook your ankles under the pad of the leg extension. No pain at all. Also don't forget to put the leg extension on its maximum setting.
