Abstract
A workout apparatus for use by a user to simulate core movement patterns of bike riding is provided. The workout apparatus includes a base deck disposed on a ground surface, a frame assembly pivotably mounted to the base deck and comprising a front portion and a rear portion, a handle bar coupled to the front portion of the frame assembly, and a pair of hydraulic damper units coupled to the frame assembly and base deck, the first hydraulic damper unit coupled to the base deck and front portion of the frame assembly, the second hydraulic damper unit coupled to the base deck and rear portion of the frame assembly. The user on the base deck grabs the handle bar to perform a pushing or pulling motion, thereby enabling the first hydraulic damper unit or second hydraulic damper unit to provide resistance to movement of the frame assembly.
