Back Pain? Could be the Gluteus Medius .

I have several clients that have complained of low back pain.
Surprisingly it is not the back muscles that are causing
the discomfort, but the Gluteus Muscles. The Medius is deep into the Butt
muscles.
Do you place your wallet in the back pocket or tools you use during work?
Any exercising or adjustments to your current workout program?
Are you walking, running, playing tennis? These could be reasons for the pain.

Here a few strengthening exercises for the Gluteus Medius.
Always consult your doctor.
