Have you ever tried experimenting with the way you walk up and down the stairs? I have...I have small legs and find it hard to do 2 at a time though :(
Let me in on your stair capers :D

I sprint up stairs using high knees for that little bit of extra training. Sometimes I skip as many as possible, although that's dangerous. I've had a few faceplants and injuries from stairs :D
Skipping steps on the way up is alright, but on the way down is a nono.
There's more than one way of walking up stairs?
Well, you could try falling upstairs.
I usually undress in the middle and crawl the last bit.
I float up them.
I don't walk down stairs, I dive headfirst down them.
Two steps at a time. Plus my right foot should always touch the last step.
it's hard to do my dorm stairs two at a time in flipflops, so I haven't skipped those too many, however in my dorm last year (wearing tennis shoes) I could go from seventh floor to the ground in thirty seconds on stairs.
Either two at the time, or one but running.
I usually skip two or three steps at a time or, on rare occasion, walk up them without skipping any. I have walked up stairs backwards, sideways, and on all fours. I am currently working on a method to walk up the stairs using nothing but my hands.
I only did that with small stairs in like... highschool. I was like the only person who did it too and one of my acquaintances used to mock me for it. Said I should start screaming while running up the stairs. I wasn't running :( That would have been funny though. Everyone was scared of me anyway <3
Two at a time coming downstairs is easier if you do it at an angle. Maybe two stairs with the outside foot, one stair with the inside. I'm not sure but I think that's how I did it back then
Due to my leg length and foot size stairs can be a problem for me. I often have to take stairs two at a time and sort of sideways, because if I stand straight on half my foot lies off the side of the step and I lose my balance.
Despite repeated attempts, I cannot walk down two steps at a time. I'm pretty fast on stairs... for someone who weighs sixteen stone anyway :p
