Running up stairs will build the quads, upper front of the legs and the calves from the pushing while running up on the toes. Over all tone will be the results. Adding the return of going down the stairs will balance the musle groups. going up will equal doing lunges.

When you do exercise why does your pulse increase?

The reason my heart beat changed is because when you exert your muscles they need extra oxygen so your heart beat increases to pump the requires oxygen amount to the muscles. So by running up and down stairs (or running on the spot as I have no stairs) you require more oxygen for your muscles. When you stop working your muscles they don't need the extra oxygen so your heart stops pumping the blood so fast around the body which then slows down your pulse to what it was to start with.
