I just took the scene as a regular random powerup for the main character in a shonen manga. Except for the fight with Athena back when they were little (rigged too), Hayate hasn't been in any major battles in the past to compare his endurance with his present self. Jobwise, I don't think there's too much difference in his endurance. He had to support his lousy parents' gambling habits through work and obviously had to have a lot of jobs considering how much his parents spend on their investments. ALL of his spare time is devoted to working so his working hours and the amount of jobs he has wouldn't have changed much, and so little endurance boost would've been needed.
If training must be involved to keep the ridiculous amount of power the characters in this manga has, then it doesn't explain how Hinagiku or Maria still possess ridiculous skill, power and endurance despite not having the same training routine Hayate has (they probably don't even have any).
