flexings

Muscles showing off

Flexings is the plural of flexing, the act of contracting muscles to display their size or definition.

Bodybuilders engage in flexings during competition.

The word extends to any ostentatious display of power or assets: His constant flexings about his wealth grew tiresome.

In internet slang, flexings are boastful showings-off.
