Philadelphia Phillies star Bryce Harper, who excels at all baseball aspects, follows a strict diet and exercise regime in order to keep his body strong, healthy, and in top condition.

As reported by Fitness Clone, Harper eats super clean. He chooses non-GMO, organic foods and takes more lean protein, eggs, vegetables, and fresh fruit. As allergenic foods slow him down, he stays away from dairy and gluten. The same is true for processed foods.

Harper abstains from consuming alcohol. Additionally, he avoids caffeine for the most part of the year. However, during the baseball season, he occasionally drinks bulletproof coffee. He always has a lot of water in his diet. Some of his other favorite drinks are kombucha, turmeric shots, and fresh juices.

He stays off social media to maintain mental clarity but occasionally posts pictures and videos of his workouts on Instagram.

Four times a week, Bryce Harper rises early to work out with his team. He might even work out for longer than two hours on leg days. He works out with weights three times a week, beginning with 10 minutes of cardio to warm up (heavyweights, plyometrics, exercise ball, etc.).

Harper, one of the most highly anticipated draft prospects in recent memory, is known as a 'five-tool player'. After his sophomore year, he transferred from Las Vegas High School to the College of Southern Nevada, where he was named the 2010 Golden Spikes Award winner.

In the 2010 MLB draft, Harper was chosen by the Washington Nationals as the first overall pick. 2012 saw his MLB debut with the team as a 19-year-old. Harper made history as the youngest position player to be picked for an All-Star Game when he was chosen for the 2012 edition.
