This is an article that resonated with me about SI joint issues.  Use your judgement if it is right for you, maybe have a PT confirm your diagnosis.  This one is talking about an unstable joint.  

The big takeaways for me are
1. normal strength and conditioning programs assume a strong pelvis.
2. Injured SI Joints don’t respond well to Bilateral loading and saggital plane movements
3. There are a lot of issues up and down stream that occur as a result of the laxity
4. Have a personal trainer ensure you are doing corrective exercises that are right for you and are doing said exercises correctly.  My Pilates trainer coincidentally started me at the same starting point Dean Somerset talks about.
