From what I know, cardio should be done for at least 15 minutes per session. For weight training, allow at least a day between workouts, more if you're working yourself harder. If you're just getting back into it, go ahead and take it on the easier side until you feel you're ready for more. Gradually add more as you see fit. Do some research (there's a ton of info out there on the net) and make sure you work all the major muscle groups. Change your routine every six weeks or so.
I do 30 minutes of cardio 3 times a week and weight training twice a week (T, Th, Sat) and I've noticed great improvements. During my last physical the nurse said wow a couple of times and everyone I know has complemented me.
