Significant decrease of 6 Minutes Walk (6 MWT) Distance with increasing age category (ANOVA p < 0.01). * Significantly higher 6 MWT-distance than categories 65–69 and 75+ (Bonferroni post-hoc test p < 0.05 and p < 0.01 respectively). Significantly higher 6 MWT-distance than category 75+ (Bonferroni post-hoc test p < 0.01). ‡Significantly higher 6 MWT-distance than category 75+ (Bonferroni post-hoc test p < 0.05).
