This study highlights challenges of conducting experimental research in applied settings in collaboration with industry partners and provides recommendations for HIMT research and practice. This study used a mixed\u2010methods convergent design to evaluate a two\u2010arm parallel randomised controlled trial in recreationally active adults. The HIMT group completed 4 \u00d7 45\u2010min sessions\/week combining aerobic and resistance exercise in a circuit format. The ISCT group completed 2 \u00d7 45\u2010min resistance circuit sessions\/week and 2 \u00d7 45\u2010min aerobic circuit sessions\/week. Data were collected at baseline (Week 0), post\u2010intervention (Week 7), and 4 weeks\u00a0follow\u2010up (Week 11) across three trial sites between June 2024 and November 2024. 80 participants (49 females, 31 males) completed baseline testing (138% of target). One participant withdrew post\u2010baseline, with 79 randomised to HIMT (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u00a0=\u00a041) or ISCT (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u00a0=\u00a038). Post\u2010testing was completed by 75 participants and follow\u2010up by 73 participants. Session attendance was 91.4%, with participants completing 3.52\u00a0\u00b1\u00a00.52 sessions\/week. Mean session rating of perceived exertion was 7.47\u00a0\u00b1\u00a01.40 (CR\u201010). The programme was perceived as tolerable and enjoyable. HIMT and ISCT for recreationally active adults within community\u2010based settings is feasible and acceptable. Exercise professionals may consider using HIMT and ISCT to engage recreationally active adults in structured exercise, promoting preventative health and positive lifestyle behaviours.\n
