If you have access to a stability ball, try these hamstring curls. I do them a lot, and find them really effective:

If you have access to TRX rings or a rowing bar. the hanging leg curl maybe an option

Glute ham raises and RDL's can be a decent option for most.

Yeah you can easily replace those leg curls and stiff legs with RDLs. You only need one movement to target that specific muscle if you're doing a dedicated leg day. Your other option is strict good mornings
