1. to give one's all; to put out everything one has
To hold nothing back — to expend all of one's strength, skill, or ideas. Transitive, and most often used of (ちから) or 実力(じつりょく) in sports and work.
(ちから)()()った。
I gave everything I had.
I couldn't fully bring out the results of my practice.
I was able to give my full ability in the final match, so I have no regrets even though I lost.

() (to put out) + () (the compound-verb suffix meaning to do completely). The () ending is what supplies the sense of exhausting the supply.

Common collocations

Usage

The potential negative ()()れない (couldn't give it all) is very common after a disappointing performance.
