without an coach , tournaments or other similar things
Depends on the age, younger brains have higher ceilings but I would say 1600 with just playing is achievable. 1800 will start to require dedication and learning.
2200 will require advanced tactical abilities.
2400+ is the limit separating mortal and aliens, hiding among us, pretending to be humans.

im 19 , also i still mean to analyse games , play a bit of puzzles
At 19 I think with proper training and regular work you can still greatly increase your rating, even without a coach or tournaments.
Maybe reach 2000 but it will require multiple years of work.
It feels a bit too old to reach master level though, sorry.
First put realistic goals, like 1300 would already be a big step. Read books, play long games, do puzzles, etc. There are plenty of advices on the forum.
I agree with 2200-2400.
my goal is to at some point get to 2000 rapid

i think so yes but you need to find good ones the problem with books on low level (no offence are that they are often hard to understand vids is pretty easy and everyone understands them
