Ensure the elevated leg is kept still and no swinging occurs

A hamstring bridge is a great way to strengthen the hamstrings without gym equipment. Single leg will essentially double the force than a double leg bridge. This exercise will also recruit your trunk/ core muscles to maintain your body position whilst performing the exercise.
