“Step up (one’s) game” = nâng trình độ "chơi" -> nghĩa là cải thiện một số mặt để có thể thực hiện/đạt hiệu suất/"thi triển" tốt như đối thủ/người khác.

Ví dụ
He had only trained seven miles when he ran his first marathon and managed to finish, but he knew if he were to continue he would have to step up his game. “At the end of 2013 I ran my first marathon in Indianapolis. It was the worst experience of my life because of how bad my legs hurt and how long it took to finish the race, but I made my dad proud because I was doing something for him.”

“We had to make sure that the lessons are informative, interesting and interactive,” said Elizabeth Martin, assistant nutrition agent for Caddo and Bossier parishes. “Sometimes we take for granted (xem thường, coi nhẹ) our ability to interact with clients in a personal manner. But when you take away the face-to-face dynamic, you have to really step up your game to keep your audience engaged.”

“It’s great to be able to play against older kids because it’s challenging and its better competition, so it really pushed me to step up my game, said Bordas.” From morning workouts to basketball practice at night, this girl eats, sleeps, and breathes basketball. “I usually do some core and cardio and lift weights in the morning and then ill do two hour workouts everyday for basketball and then another hour of basketball after that, said Bordas.” Bordas hopes to take her basketball career as far as she can. Her dream is to play in a Power Five Conference.
