Notes:
Harvey Martin founded and owned The MindStrong Project from 2017 to 2022, where he trained some of the top athletes and business executives in the world toward peak performance. Working alongside the scouting department for the Milwaukee Brewers since 2016, he specialized in training amateur and professional athletes from the NCAA, Olympics, MLB, NHL, and NFL in strength and conditioning, recovery, and mental performance. He began providing consulting services to universities in 2013 and would eventually teach at every level of college athletics around the country. During this time, he helped develop culture and peak performance habits for over 1,000 student-athletes and coaches. Beyond the
athletic
field, Harvey has spoken and led workshops with Fortune 100 companies on how to optimize human performance and how to achieve peak performance habits with the use of breathing and mindset. In recent years, Harvey became the breathing specialist for the San Francisco Giants, where in 2021 the team set a franchise record, with 107 wins in a single season. Currently, Harvey is the human performance coach for the San Francisco Giants.
