mix it up
Get into it
Mix it up means to engage in conflict or competition, often physically: The two players mixed it up near the goal.
It can also mean to vary routine or approach: I like to mix it up at the gym so I don't get bored.
The first sense suggests throwing punches or trading blows; the second suggests introducing variety to avoid monotony.
