That's not a bad selection for upper body focus.  Just make
sure the weight is manageable with good form.

You should try them anyway.  Squats work your back and core in ways you
might not be used to.  Really, though, if you can get in the gym and do
any of these basics, you'll get results.  If you have to narrow it down
to one or two, deadlifts and overhead press would be my picks.
