Wumi's advice is generally pretty good... but once again, nobody needs to exercise for 90 minutes a day. That's just a little crazy.
All it takes is 30-45 minutes, 3-4x a week. A day of rest in between each session.
Don't forget a whole body workout! Weights are your friends.
Even some pilates is better than nothing. Actually, pilates is really really great. It's a wonderful toning/stretching exercise. If you're a guy, I would definitely suggest trying this out a bit, you'd be surprised how tight people can get... but get a special book for men (http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Book-Pilates-Men-Performance/dp/0060820772 http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Book-Pilates-Men-Performance/... is a great one).

Generally you are right but I've never heard of a person who regularly exercises this much to be unfit. 30-45min/3-4 days a week is a bare minimum. What I've tended to notice is you really should aim for 6 days a week for about an hour but not be totally fanatical especially when injured. This allows for days where for some reason cannot do pt, some rest.
- icey 18y agoHe's mentioned previously that he means you should block out that amount of time; he's including getting ready at the gym, etc. (#2 from here: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=328289 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=328289)
