well since what your during is endurance based work on your endurance. Maybe spend some time on actually climbing stairs or doing step ups with just your bodyweight. Do squat jumps where you just explode from the bottom and pick your feet off the ground. Walking lunges with no body weight would work too. Just spend like 45 minuets doing a combination of body weight exercises and rest for the rest of the week so you can recover for the stairs. If you never work out one workout like this will skyrocket your endurance. This will work out your fast twitch fibers which is what will be kicking in the most.
