Washington Nationals All-Star Bryce Harper has been know to train for power with intense and gritty workouts. On the flip side, when you max-out at the gym, you have to give as much effort to your recovery as well. ABC Sports reporter Scott Abraham gave us a glimpse of how the outfielder takes cupping therapy to the next level. Take a look for yourself:
