We also rely on the gluteus medius when balancing on one leg - not stretching and allowing it to feel "tight", can lead to back pain and pain when walking.
It is less robust than the big muscle at the back and fatigues easier. It isn't the easiest muscle to target and stretch easily, so take the time to hold these stretches for 40 - 60 seconds.

There are two trigger points for the glute medius - pressing them and massaging into these areas can relieve tension and pain in the back and glutes. Try holding for 10 seconds, releasing and repeating as necessary!
