Harvey Martin is a coach, author, entrepreneur, and podcast host. He has coached and consulted athletes, business executives, and organizations on the topic of human performance since 2012. Harvey consulted at every level of college athletics while working in the scouting department of the Milwaukee Brewers organization from 2016 to 2020. In 2020, he began to specialize in training exclusively for professional athletes-Olympians as well as MLB, NHL, and NFL players-working on strength and conditioning, recovery, mental performance, and more. Harvey has made presentations and led workshops for Fortune 100 and Fortune 500 companies on how to optimize human performance. In recent years, Harvey became the breathing specialist for the San Francisco Giants, and in 2021, the team set a franchise record with 107 wins in a single season, en route to winning the National League West. He became the major league human performance coach for the team. Harvey was a Division I athlete at Central Michigan University (2008-2011), where he received his bachelor's degree. He finished at Minnesota State University, Mankato (2012-2013), where he earned a master's degree and taught courses on coaching theories, strength and conditioning, and team skills. As an athlete, Harvey was a two-time All-American and was named National Pitcher of the Year before signing to play professional baseball with the Milwaukee Brewers in 2013.
