Been working on strengthening glutes with those deadlifts and g.m.'s but g-medius is always tight with so much lateral movement in tennis... hip rotators seem to be culpable as well. Have had increased flexibility in hamstring so mot much problem there but could the glutes be pulling on the ischial rather than the hamstrings during bent-knee lifts?

PS.. Layed on a tennis ball tonight 4 glutes...
