Pump It Up

Get more vigorous

Pump It Up is an exhortation to increase energy, intensity, or volume—whether at a gym, a party, or in competition.

The phrase often appears as a song lyric or DJ callout to energize a crowd: The DJ shouted "pump it up!" and the bass dropped.

Pump It Up is also an arcade rhythm game where players step on floor panels in time with music, similar to Dance Dance Revolution.
