    Are you familiar with circuit training? You basically pick about four to five exercise that hit different body parts. Back, chest, abs, shoulders, arms and then you do one set of each about 8-10 reps with about 30 seconds rest in between each set...rest for about two minutes and then repeat three to five times....

    Plyometics are good as well. I think they are fun but some people think I am crazy :)

    You should also do squats, deadlifts, pullups...etc...

    Do a google search and there will be some videos. They are basically exercise that combine weights and jumping. So you can do like kettle ball squat and then jump...or dumbbell flutter kicks etc etc...

    It might not hurt to pick up a book that has exercises in it. I have the mens health big book of exercises, great resource...
