Push ups will get a big chest and will build your triceps and front shoulders.
Pull ups for your biceps and back, do overhand and underhand pulls!
both of these exercises will workout your whole upper body.
for your abs just do sit ups and curl ups also scissor kicks are great!

Your basic push-up, though grueling and boring, will do amazing work on your upper body.

When you start cranking out 50 no problem, you need to step it up, by either putting your feet higher, like on a chair, or holding yourself in the "down" position for longer time.

Abs can be done in a lot of different ways.

Stick to crunches at first. Do 25. When that is easy, double it. Crunches are a lot easier than push-ups, so it’s easier to increment at a faster pace.

A good crunch involves three very important parts.

1. Feet flat on a the ground (or, if you want a challenge, keep your legs straight, and about 4-5 inches off the ground.)
2. Don’t crank your neck by pulling the back of your head with your hands. Cross your arms over your chest and let your abs do all the work.
3. Don’t do a sit-up where your chest is next to your legs. A crunch should take your shoulders about 4-5 inches off the ground.

Push-ups and Sit-ups are still the best way to go for equipment-less workouts, and that goes for both men and women. It would also be an advantage if you can spend a few minutes each day to do simple yoga exercises, they really do work.

But of course, results will not be as remarkable in just a few weeks, so you need to be patient and do your workouts continuously and diligently. And never forget to do those stretches before every workout to avoid damaging your muscles.

See the links below for some workout suggestions. Good luck!

All different kinds of pushups, you should take a 30 second break between different kinds and do as many as you possibly can of each type, the harder you push yourself the faster and better you results will be.

Wide / standard / narrow hands pushups, adjust the width of your hands after a few of each, go very slow, 5 mississippi on the way down and 5 mississippi on the way up

try some fast / slow sets with normal width, 5 fast, 5 slow.
clap pushups (clap your hands at the top)
side to side (move to one side after a pushup while staying on your hands and toes and do another)
feet on a chair (not really needed till you can do quite a few)
One arm pushups (more about balance than strength)
diamond pushups (form a diamond under your face with your hands.
military pushups (for triceps)

Biceps will be very difficult without weight, I would recommend you pick up some resistance bands (very cheap and available) for working biceps

Abs are easy without weight or equipment, I’d recommend finding a video, ab ripper X from the P90X series is the hardest and best I’ve seen.

Triceps:
Dips and throws if you can get the bands.
Dips: Grab a chair on the sides or front and slide off the chair, feet straight out on the ground, lower your butt to the floor and then push down on the chair to push yourself back up in the air, like a reverse pushup.

It’s very possible to do this at home however, I would encourage you to at least get the resistance band if not a few dumbbells and think about a program like P90X (I use it and it is very very hard). There are ways of getting those things for free.

well instead of equipment you might just want an exercise ball. But some crunches, supermans and the plank will help
