Hi.
As some of you might know, when you are on vacation, you always tend to have a lack of time, since there are so many things to discover and to do.
This is my vacation workout:
1.5 miles run withing 9 minutes.
Squats = 2x20
Russian twist with medicine ball 10 kg = 3x20
Leg raises = 3x20
Raised leg crunches with medicine ball 10 kg = 3x20
Heel touches = 3x20
Modified V-ups with medicine ball 10 kg = 3x20
100s = 40 seconds
Plank = 40 seconds
Plank left = 40 seconds
Plank right = 40 seconds
Dragon flag sit ups = 2x15
Side crunches with medicine ball 10 kg = 3x15
Dorsal hold = 60 seconds
Diamond push up = 3x10
Push up = 2x20
Wide grip push up = 2x10
Spiderman push up = 2x10
Clapping push up = 2x15
And every other day 70 pushups withing 2 minutes + 70 situps withing 2 minutes.
Whats your opinion?
As I've said, it's just for vacation.

This looks great - very challenging. Are you saying this is your vacation workout meaning you do MORE than this when you are NOT on vacation? you must be super super fit. Good for you!!!

I think if you do that routine three times a day, it will work well. 🙂

I tend to keep it simple on vacations. I run an hour every morning before my family wakes up and I try to pick activities during the day that keep me active. I personally don't bother with body weight exercises because when at home my resistance training routine is heavy so a squat with only body weight would just turn into an endurance exercise instead of a strength exercise and I already have running for that.

I am with @FitBeforeFifty. I keep it simple- run/walk and the rest of the time I spend enjoying myself. I typically put in 5 miles in the morning and whatever else the day brings is bonus. Since most vacations involve some element of walking distances I end up with decent cardio for the day. When I get home, I pick up the routine...
If you have time to do what you outlined, I think its great. But if it comes at a cost to vacation time- I say skip it.
