The gluteus medius muscle does the following:
Abducts the leg at the hip.This means that the gluteus medius muscle moves the upper leg outward to the side away from the vertical midline of the body (i.e.
Gluteus Medius, Gluteus Minimus and (Tensor Fasciae Latae or Gluteus Maximus)

Hip Abduction ...
Gluteus Medius and Gluteus Minimus are the hip abductors. They originate from the external surface of the Ilium and attach to the femur. The abductors are responsible for stabilization and also perform external rotation of the hip.
.
The gluteus medius and minimus are located around the body part of your pelvis, so they are not as apparent. All three glute muscles are involved in rotation and extension of your leg.
Shapes the hip (gluteus medius and minimus), the sides of the buttocks (gluteus maximus), and the external rotators of the hip (small muscles deep inside which help strengthen the hip joint).

Gluteus medius and minimus pull your legs outward. Inline skating, skiing and dance work these muscles.
Adductors - Muscles of the inner thigh that pull your legs together. They attach the pelvis and the femur (or thigh bone).
Manual muscle testing demonstrated that the left Gluteus Medius, left Psoas, bilateral Sartorius, and bilateral Gracilis were conditionally inhibited (2) during the initial visit.
Gluteal Muscles: The gluteus maximus and gluteus medius muscles help maintain your balance, when you bend backwards. These muscles can be strengthened by performing hip-hike exercises.
There are actually three sets of gluts, gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, and gluteus minimus, which mean maximum, middle, and minimum respectively. "Glutes" as a nickname almost always refers to just the gluteus maximus.
Best Exercise for Gluteus medius
The quadruped hip extensions, stepups and lunges generated significantly more muscle activation than squats. Thehorizontal and vertical leg presses generated the least amount of activity.
Abductors
Muscles of the hip that pull your legs apart. Gluteus medius and minimus pull your legs outward. Inline skating, skiing and dance work these muscles.
Abs
Abbreviation for abdominal muscles.
Once that is in order, they set up a program to attack the target area, which is made up of three main muscles: gluteus maximus, gluteus minimus and gluteus medius.
Primarily pertains to the gluteus maximus muscle, which forms the bulk of the buttocks shape. Other gluteal muscles include gluteus medius and gluteus minimus
