He's asking why you'd include them if you're going for strength. If you want hamstring STRENGTH I do negative heavy good mornings. If I want quad strength I'll do front squats. You need to stay away from machines and look for any variations of powerful compound exercises to specifically target the muscles you want to work (Like from squat to front squat).
Get rid of the pec machine, dumbell flyes, upright rows, leg curls, and leg extension. Squat a few times a week instead of once a week. Your leg day is seriously lacking. Do romanian deadlifts, rack pulls, ATG squats at a lower weight more explosively along with only parallel squats. Front squats and maybe zerker squats (I think they're called) which have been very good to my forearm strength.
There's a lot more, but that should get you started. I'll come back in a bit and post some other stuff I see. Good luck.
