An upper lower split might be best for you For upper you could do dumbbell bench press, lat pulldowns, some kind of core exercise (i like cable crunches), and maybe something for shoulders like cable lateral raises. For lower you could do squats, Romanian deadlifts, machine leg extension and machine leg curl. I recommend 3 sets of 10 reps per movement with 2-3 minutes resting between each. Drink lots of water and adjust numbers if needed, what I gave should take 30-40 minutes per day.

I recommend dumbbells for your deadlifts, for squats some kind of machine is best, like a leg press or a hack squat machine, but barbell is fine. Also I recommended an upper lower split since there's no way to effectively train your whole body in one short session, the best you could do is maybe bench press, lat pulldowns, squats, Romanian deadlifts, and cable crunches every time you'd go, but that many compound movements is very tiring and you wouldn't allow your body to recover between session
