Wait, 3 days a week right? So how will that work?
Monday Pushups
Tuesday Break
Wednesday Dips
Thursday Break
Friday Pushups
Saturday Break
Sunday Dips
That's just 2 days for each out of 3...
That's really too much work for your triceps to be honest. You're already hitting them hard with dips then you gotta rest cause you hit em with pushups. Also you need some pulling motion to make sure you don't have muscular imbalances.
So can I do pushups - situps, then squats on my rest day, since pushups are push and situps are pull? How do you suggest I split up doing three programs? Should I do them all on one day, or is the way they're spread out now okay?
You can do reverse crunches, sit ups aren't effective unless your on that elevated machine. Pushups 1 day. Rest dips. Rest. Push ups. You can do squats rest dead lifts, rest squats too. How's that?
you need to do something to work your back. Pullups, rows, etc. push-pull is a simpler way of referring to alternating between antagonistic muscle groups.

You CAN but you have to alternate but one helps the other so.
Pushup day - break - dip day - break - pushup day - break - dip day.
