I did two a days for a couple of years. What I found was I did a regular workout in the morning. What ever you normal once a day workout would be. I would do that around 5:30 am. The go home and get some sleep after eating. Then around eight pm I would go back and hit the same muscles again. I might have to lower the weight a little bit but don't wimp out. The sleep in the day gave my muscle a chance to rest then I hit them hard in the evening. This I think had the best effect on my body of the routines I have done with the exception of volume training. Yea your muscle will be tired but sothe fuck what. You are in charge they aren't.

i do two shorter workouts or do cardio at lunch and a regular workout after work. For a while I was doing this:

Monday: Chest at 11:30am then Bis at 4PM w/cardio
Tuesday: Calves and Hams at 11:30am and Quads at 4PM(these can be switched around obviously)
Off
Thursday: Shoulders at 11:30am and Tris at 4PM w/cardio
Friday: Cardio at 11:30am and Back at 4PM.
Off
Repeat

If you feel motivated and have the time and the time to recoup -- go for it. They can be very productive. But on a full time basis you'll eventually start overtraining.

If you get overtraining injuries the body (muslces, joints etc) start to make the rules. You have to ask them for permission to train again.

I think you need to get a rest day every 2 days working out, plus hitting shoulders on mondays and weds leaves little time to recoup. For every three weeks working twice a day, take a week for working out once a day.
