I run up stairs on the front of my feet in about half a second until I get to the last 4-6 stairs, then I just jump up the rest. I've built up incredibly strong leg muscles from doing this a few dozen times a day.

I usually take 2 at a time. I'm a pretty short guy so I kinda jump up them, though going down I kinda run down, going one at a time.

However...at home...it's on all fours for me ;)

If no one's looking: Get a running start and jump as many stairs as possible, then 2 at a time.
If there are people: One at a time.

At home i can just mob, pouncing up 4 or 5 at a time. But normally walking i usually do the occasional two stair jump when ever my momentum has caught up to me, but usually just doing one at a time. I did the two at a time thing for a while but no matter how long your legs are, to me, it just looks like youre trying too hard to climb stairs...

Depends on how lazy I'm feeling, but it alternates between one and two at a time.

2 normally, but 4 when I'm in a hurry. And know the staircase, lol - I'm only little, so four steps is like half my height XD

I go two-at-a-time. Long legs means it's a lot faster and easier. Plus we have winders on our staircase, so while I might have taken three I really can't.

On the way down it's usually just one at a time, unless I'm really in a hurry and the stairs are longer. I'm afraid to trip and fall.

3 steps. Depends more on where I am or if theres a low overhanging ceiling otherwise, rush up the stairs.

2 steps normally, 3 steps if I'm in a hurry.

If I'm in a hurry and at home though, I bound up them on all fours.

Mostly I go for the two-at-a-time, but there's also my use-hands-and-feet for quick climbing when I'm not worried about looking like a half-ape and my shaolin training three-stair-jump method for working out and for when I'm not worried about looking like a half-insane.
Also, the one-step-at-a-time provides a different workout, so I never rule that out either. I like stairs.
Going down stairs? I love sliding on handrails and swinging around corners!

One at a time 'cos I can't be fucked putting in the extra effort to go two at a time and who cares how long it takes? The only time I walk upstairs is either after walking 2 or 4 miles.

It depends where I am - out and about it's usually one or two a time and if I'm at home I vault around 5 steps a time
