Explanation:

The step test for cardiorespiratory fitness typically involves taking pulse (to measure recovery heart rate), using a standard step (like 12 - inch), and comparing results to a reference chart. Performing the test for 1 hour is not part of the standard step test (it's usually for a shorter duration, like a few minutes of stepping).

Answer:

B. performing the test for 1 hour
