Favourite exercise to target the hamstrings?

Deadlifts, all kinds.

How often do you train your legs and do you split the muscles up in different days/sessions?

Twice per week and I separate legs and glutes on different days.

Do you prefer weighted leg exercises or bodyweight exercises?

I do both. Heavy for glutes and body weight for legs with some plyometrics.

What are your top tips when training your glutes?

Squeeze your glutes and do some dynamic warm ups first to activate the glutes. I also use a resistance band  for some exercises as ‘active’ rest between sets of weighted exercises.
