Elina
Lammi
Exercise physiologist, athlete and coach
I am a sports expert and pedagogical specialist with excellent problem-solving and self-management skills. As an athlete and a coach my strengths are goal setting and logical reasoning.
Physiologist
I am currently working as a Physiologist at Firstbeat Analytics (/Garmin), where I am developing new physiological features for consumer devices. In Firstbeat Analytics, I can combine my strong knowledge of human physiology and skills in mathematics to identify and solve problems. I have a passion for endurance sports and enhancing one’s performance. This keeps me motivated when developing solutions for users who are chasing excellence and trying to reach their goals.
Athlete
Exercise and nature are close to my heart and an important part of my daily life. Even though my best years as an endurance athlete might be behind me, I am eager to push my performance further and enjoy the post-exercise endorphins on weekly basis.
Coach
I am the head coach of the women’s team in Helsingin Suunnistajat. In addition to enjoying problem-solving and developing consumer products, hands-on coaching is also an important part of my life.
For five years, I also worked as an individual coach (orienteering and triathlon), but at the moment I only work as a group coach. In addition to my master’s degree, I have enhanced my coaching skills – I have Further Qualification in Coaching, and I have completed Academic Personal Trainer studies.
