The Princeton undergrad (and daughter of *Wheel of Fortune* host Pat) just released a [catchy new single called \\\"Wild Boy\\\"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2aVYpaU0wo) that you may soon find stuck in your head.\\n\\nBut despite all the midterm exams and music-making, the stunning singer always makes sure to carve out quality time devoted to nothing other than breaking a sweat.\\n\\n\\\"I always feel so refreshed and energized after a workout,\\\" says Sajak. \\\"It gives me energy and focus to do any other work I have that day.\\\"\\n\\nSounds like this student's got a solid handle on the priorities! To help her with this task: trainer Dan Riser of the Athlete Architect, Inc., who devised a training program (which includes the Single Leg Hip Bridge) to help \\\"tighten, tone and shape her lower body.\\\"\\n\\nThis move's a winner for a crazy-busy girl because \\\"I can focus on the target areas and really feel the muscles working,\\\" she says. \\\"I definitely feel that my legs are stronger and more toned!\\\"\\n\\nHey, that's one way help her hold the pace while out jogging with her fellow bandmates, another favorite hobby of hers. But if you want a booty like Maggie, try her exercise for size.\\n\\n THE MOVE: SINGLE LEG HIP BRIDGE\\n\\n*Works: glutes, hips, quads*\\n\\nBegin by lying on your back with your feet flat on the floor and shoulder width apart. Extend your right leg raising your right foot making your right leg level with your left leg, as shown.\\n\\n[#image: /photos/57d8c79546d0cb351c8c655d]||||||\\n\\nBegin the movement by squeezing your left glute muscle, then, pressing through your left heel, lift hips up to the ceiling, trying to obtain a straight line from your shoulders through your hip and knee. Hold this position for a three second count, lower your hips back down slowly and repeat for 10-15 total repetitions.\\n\\n[#image: /photos/57d8c796d3276fe232947bf5]||||||\\n\\nBe sure to breathe (exhaling as you press your hips up and inhaling as you return them down). Repeat with the right leg. Perform three sets of 10-15 reps each side 2-3 days per week. Advanced exercisers can increase the hold time from three seconds up to a 10-second hold for each repetition.\\n\\n RELATED LINKS:\\n\\n- [Get Long, Lean Legs Like Karen Fairchild of Little Big Town](/flash/2013/11/cmts-karen-fairchilds-long-lean-legs)\\n- [Stars -- and Their Bods -- Come Out for Country's Biggest Night](/flash/2013/11/celebrity-cma-awards-2013-red-carpet)\\n- [Joy Williams Shares Her Tummy Tightener](/flash/2013/09/cmts-joy-williams-tummy-tightener)\\n\\nImage Credit: *Courtesy of Subject (3)*"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
