Anyone have tips/recs for at home workouts for building chest and glutes? Tired of all the “hourglass” workouts that don’t even focus on strength training, just a skinny waist 😭 I want to get STRONGER not necessarily skinnier

Unless you have a home gym you’re not going to get significantly stronger at home. You need weights

It depends on where you're starting from. Are you brand new to exercise or are you already in shape? As a beginner, all you need is a few varying weights of dumbbells and a bench, you can do goblet squats, Bulgarian split squats and hip thrusts for glutes, and dumbbell bench for chest (buy a single-day pass at a gym to figure out which weights you need first). You can invest in more/better equipment once you get into a rhythm. Good luck!

Yeah unfortunately, getting noticeably bigger and stronger without the use of equipment is just not at all practical.

My problem with this is that for the price of a decent set of dumbells, you could just get like 3-4 months worth of a planet fitness membership 😭😭

That's why I just go to the gym. But if they're insisting on at-home, you can usually get good-enough gear secondhand for pretty cheap. It ain't pretty, but all it's gotta be is heavy
