The mean incremental shuttle-walk test distance was 493.00 ± 180.04 m. The factors significantly associated with exercise capacity were age (β = -.42), female (β = -.35), body mass index (β = -.25) and exercise self-efficacy (β = -.20). These factors accounted for 56.5% of the total variance of exercise capacity.
