rile up

To make a person or animal uncontrollably excited by making swift movements and yelling loudly and quickly.

Fido got so riled up the other day that he did 30 laps around the kitchen table, broke a bunch of lamps, barked so loudly that the cops, firemen, and ambulance showed up, and raped Fluffy the cat. Then they arrested him for cruelty to animals and threw him back in the mental institution.

man up

to fulfill your responsibilites as a man, despite your insecurities and constant ability to place yourself in embarrasing and un-manly scenarios.

Paul forcefully imposed the bet on everyone, yet he was the first to fail miserably on the very challenge he had conjured up.

Paul must now man up and meet his own challenge.
