Body Weight Workout

I am going on holiday for two weeks tomorrow, and I can't take my dumbbells with me.

I was thinking that I could substitute them for a workout using body weight exercises.

Do you think that this would be ok?

Push-ups: 12 reps
Push-ups (the other kind which works your biceps and triceps, you bring your elbows down to your sides): 12 reps
Crunches: 12 reps
Deep Squats: 12 reps
etc

Something along these lines. Maybe I could do each exercise one after the other then cycle through it again.

I just want something that could take the place of my dumbbells, as I would rather not miss out on 2 weeks of exercise.

Any help and suggestions would be appreciated, thanks.
 
I'm not sure what this other kind of pushup it is that works your biceps as well as triceps, and I like to think I'm the expert of pushups :D

I'd suggest finding somewhere to do pullups and chinups. Some bar, tree branch or just some part of a building you could grab on to.

Also with squats (and lunges), you could just grab the heaviest thing that's available and use that while doing them.
 
i think he means close "grip" pushups.. they dont work the bis though.

Do some bulgarian squats and pullups too.
