I like this resistance band and exercise ball workout. It takes a little less than 30 minutes, the equipment is inexpensive, and it gives you a pretty good whole body workout.

I wouldn't wanna be in a club that wouldn't let me in...

If you have access to a gym... you can do the elliptical for 15 minutes.  If not, you can go outside and run.  Then I would do 3 sets of 30 situps, 3 sets of 10 push-ups (or you can use machines, if you have access to a gym)... and stretches for the last 3 or so minutes.  30 minutes isn't very long but you can get some good exercise in.

That would really depend on your goals.  Are you trying to lose body fat, or are you aiming for muscle building?
