Or go and find a tree branch for pullups/muscleups/dips.

Or do some 100m max effort hill repeats

Or jump squats

Or buy a futon and try moving that heavy and bulky mattress up a flight of stairs, alone.

There are hundreds of ways to get great workouts that do not require an indoor gym.

Pull-ups/muscleuos/dips won't work your glutes.

100m max effort hill repeats aren't really anabolic the same way squats are.

Jump squats aren't the same as pulling weight.

Your futon doesn't weigh as much as what I'm squatting and I'm much more likely to injure myself hauling it's awkward shape up stairs

There are hundreds of ways to get a workout but people go to the gym for good reasons
