joyful and fun exercise

In light of the last post on saving time I wanted to explore the topic of efficient exercise.  Experts say that you should exercise daily and recent research suggests that even moderate daily exercise may not be enough.So how much exercise do we really need?  In my own mind I usually figure that I will need to exercise 30 - 60 minutes in order get into reasonably good shape?  And let me be clear I'm not exercising much these days - and to be honest, trying to find 3-7 extra hours a week to really exercise seems daunting and keeps me from really getting started again - since I'll only run out of time to do it right anyway.  

If we use our 1 year calculation that is between 6 and 16 days in a year just spent exercise, realistically more if you include time driving to a gym or the extra showers and changing one might do.  So it's definitely a topic worth exploring if we want to use time efficiently

Let's pretend for the sake of discussion - and this is an invitation for discussion, that you can get significant gains from short periods of the "right" exercise.    But what is the right exercise?  This is what I'm looking for input from readers.

The question

If you budgeted 15 minutes a day for exercise, what would your exercise routine include each day?  

(The goal should be to be well rounded and build strength, flexibility, and endurance.)

I plan to take all the input and feedback and build it into a personal workout plan to try out personally and document the results.
