Omega 6 fatty acids are derived from sunflower, soy, corn oils, sesame etc. To derive these fatty acids companies compress the seeds at high pressure to extract the oil from them and later the oil is heated at high temperature. These processes damage the fatty acid chain which releases the free radicals which can cause even cancer in the body. Unsaturation at Carbon6 and Carbon7 and Carbon9 and Carbon10 make the fatty acid chain weaker and heat sensitive. these free radicals cause inflammation in the body that may harm or destroy the body structure.

If you decide to do two workouts in one day, it's important to plan your routine carefully to avoid overtraining or injury and to have appropriate rest along with nutrition.  Doing two workouts in a single day can be good for some people, but it depends on several factors.
