Raised in Hafnarfjörður, Iceland. He's the son of former Icelandic star Geir Hallsteinsson, who also played as a professional handballer during his playing career.

He started his playing career with multiple Icelandic champions, FH Hafnarfjörður, but however did not start excelling until' he reached his 16th birthday, because of great dedication and work ethic. After playing with the FH first team for a couple of years, Logi was sold to TBV Lemgo and finally got into the Icelandic national team.
