Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Derived from the phrasal verb construction combining 'go', the adverb 'all' (meaning completely), and 'out' (meaning to the utmost limit). Dating back to the late 19th century in athletic contexts, it originally referred to runners or oarsmen exerting every ounce of energy until exhaustion, before broadening into general usage to signify maximum effort or lavish expenditure.
