    This is a page on one of my favorite fitness sites. I don't do this particular workout, but maybe you will find the info useful.

    I didn't check out the links, but glute bridges and/or hip thrusts with weight are awesome.

    Then, if you want to tweak the gluteus medius more (and I do), add in clamshells (using weight/resistance band) and high arabesques from ballet (with weights eventually). Get that leg way up in the ballet move, and stand comfortably with the other (supporting) leg.

    Do all of these with about 8-12 reps, 2-3 sets, using enough weight that it's really hard by the end.

    I do a few more, but I don't think anyone wants to hear my whole session, lol. All of these moves work for my bad knees, so that's why I left out some obvious good ones like squats :)
