I'm 14 years old, 5'4 and 115 pounds. I know everyone says eat protein after you do weights and stuff, but I don't have a gym membership for a while so I do 100 chinups and 100 pushups everynight. Should I eat protein after this or is this not a big thing? I also do abs every other night and sometimes dips.

When exactly do you plan on letting your body grow? If youre doing something every day youre robbing yourself of growth potential. And yes you need to consume alot of protein and carbs after your workouts. This is very important to the growth process. Remember that muscles grow while you rest, not while you train.

That quite a bit of work you should definetely rest more even if you're not sore some of my best gains have come when I haven't been sore after training, I would interfere with the potential growth process and strength gains if I continued to train the same muscles the following day.
You shouldn't do this either.

try to flip flop it with squats + situps every day to give your upper body a day to recover. also get into trying different types of pushups such as inclined, fingertip, extra wide, close handed, etc. and same with the pullups. or you can try for 10 rounds of 10 pushups and 10 pullups as fast as you can. this is all just so u don't get bored while you're young and without a gym or other equipment.

Also try...
handstand push ups. If you have balance issues, like me, put your feet up against the wall and do push ups this way. Works your shoulders very well. You might want to do these first as they take a lot out of you. Also, don't try to stand up right away afterwards, you can become very dizzie because of all of the blood resettling to your lower limbs. Try'm, think you'll like'm.

Yes you should take protein after that.
Don't do the stuff every night though. Your muscles need time to rest and recover or you won't have any gains. Try making yourself a workout consisting of push ups, pull ups, sit ups, various jumping techniques, and sprints. Push your body to the limit. Do this every other day.100x11 weighted pull up
