Abstract
Energy harvesting is a powerful technique to produce clean and renewable energy with better infrastructure improvement. The exhaustive review of recent progress and development in bio-mechanical energy harvesting (BMEH) techniques from human body is discussed in this manuscript. The BMEH from the human body is categorized into three parts, namely, piezoelectric energy harvesting (PEEH), triboelectric energy harvesting (TEEH), and Electro-magnetic Energy harvesting (EMEH). Each energy harvesting system is discussed with working principles with mathematical equations; each energy harvesting progress is discussed with a few work demonstrations. The applications of each energy harvesting from the recent research work are addressed in detail. The summary of each energy harvester from the human body or motion with advantages, limitations, performance metrics, current methods, and implemented human body parts are highlighted with Tabulation. The critical challenges/issues with possible solutions are also discussed.

Summary
Renewable energy resources are necessary to solve most of the significant challenges for sustainable development. Energy harvesting is one of the essential processes to produce clean, renewable energy and improves infrastructure development. The energy harvesting (EH) process receives unused energy and is transformed into the most usable energy resource. The commonly used and available energy resources for the energy harvesting process are kinetic, solar, thermal, wind, hydro energies. The EH system is used to recharge batteries, increase the life span of electronic devices, and battery replacement in a low-power system. The electronics devices' life cycle can be prolonged using an energy harvesting system. The low-power circuits generally use 1mW total power, so integrate the energy harvesting method in small integrating circuits to consume less the 10 μW-100 μW total power [1,2]
