Good news, dudes and dudettes, you can still get as ripped as Bryce Harper and love donuts and cookies.

The Washington Nationals slugger is one of the star athletes who agreed to strip down for ESPN's "Body Issue" this year (as evidenced by the photo at right). He joins Prince Fielder and Matt Harvey as MLB players who have bared all for ESPN in the past few years.

In his "Body Issue" interview, Harper gives us the usual factoids about his workout regimen and physique — he squats 405, has eight percent body fat and still wishes he had better abs — but Harper also admits he still loves sweet and his cheat days.

"My mom's cookies are unbelievable. So what I do: I'll put the cookies inside the microwave for, like, 12 seconds. It's got to be 12 seconds. And then I'll grab the ice cream and I'll make an ice cream sandwich. And I mean it's unbelievable. I have my cheat days."

Head over to ESPN to watch a video in which Harper talks about his love for donuts and ice cream. If you want to see him naked swinging a baseball bat, that's there too.
