The body preferentially burns PUFA, especially during exercise. So athletes aren’t likely to store much, if any, of the harmful fatty acids. Usain Bolt is famous for consuming 100s of grams of omega6 fatty acids via McDonald’s chicken nuggets the day of he broke the world record.
Dr. Peat has asserted the opposite. That the body preferentially burns sat fat and stores PUFA. I have never seen the cites for this but I tend to believe Dr. Peat.
