Where a male character's pectoral muscles jiggle and bounce, except that they flex them to make it happen. However, generally it is used not so much for Fanservice as it is used as an often comedic demonstration of "manliness". Other names for it are the "Pec Bounce", the "Pec Dance" (usually this name is used if people flex their pecs in time to music), and the "Pec Pop". A character with a Bodybuilding background would probably do this while hitting some variation of either a "side chest" or a "most muscular" pose, since those are the ones which most emphasize the pecs. Another variant is the "Ab Wave", where a character with a well defined six pack will flex their stomach muscles like a wave. Generally, this isn't so much saying "look how strong I am" as it is "aren't I sexy?" For cases of Pec Flex when the flexer has less-than-impressive pecs, see Flexing Those Non-Biceps. Also compare Fat Flex, where a more weighty character will suck in their gut to give the appearance pf pecs. |

Alex Louis Armstrong of Fullmetal Alchemist. It has been ♥♥♥ PASSED DOWN THE ARMSTRONG LINE FOR GENERATIONS! ♥♥♥ He befriended Sig Curtis, Izumi's husband, through a flex-off. Speaking of Curtis, his Pec Flex was so epic his shirt exploded. At one point in the 2003 anime Armstrong attempts to flex loyal soldiers into joining a coup. His argument, if it can be called that, is that his faintly ridiculous muscles pulse with loyalty. |

Dragon Ball Z Elsewhere: King Cold challenges Olibu to a showdown, offering to surrender if he wins but enabling the villains trapped in Hell to go free if Cold wins. Everybody thinks that this will be a straight fight, but it's actually a ritual "combat" of both participants doing the best muscle man poses they can. All the other heroes and villains just watch in awkward silence except for Frieza, who's mortified when King Cold loses. | |

Prior to this, during the lead up to the original WrestleMania, Hulk Hogan and Mr. T guest starred, often doing a Pec Flex, while all the while claiming that they weren't going to laugh during the show. Early on, they appeared in Billy Crystal's 'Fernaldo' skit, with Fernaldo gushing about the pecs. Then a comment by Crystal caused Mr. T to giggle for a moment, and as soon as he got a serious face back on, Crystal pointed out that his laugh caused his pecs to wiggle. Mr. T and Hogan lost it at that point. | |

Total Drama: In the confessional in "Chinese Fake-Out", Alejandro discloses that he's been dreading the inevitable eating competition, because his body is too flawless to contaminate with gross food. To illustrate his assertion, he rips off his shirt and flexes his pecs. In "Backstabbers Ahoy!", Vito tells Anne Maria and Zoey not to fight over him as there's enough of him to go around. As he speaks, he lifts his arms behind his head and flexes his pecs seductively. |

Drunken Master, Jackie Chan's 1978 film in which Jackie played a young troublemaker. At that point on the run from a promised brutal disciplining at the hands of an uncle he's never met, he scams a local restaurant. Jackie's character attempts a dine and dash, but the restaurant has a bouncer who easily blocks the way. The bouncer takes his title seriously, by bouncing his pecs to intimidate customers he intends to throw out. 'I am Iron Gorilla. See me jump.' |

Done often in Professional Wrestling, usually right before a match begins or right after executing a really awesome move. Lex Luger was one of the most frequent practitioners. Chris Masters did this as much, if not more than Lex Luger. Brock Lesnar, Scott Steiner, and Batista also did this. Frequently doen by Tony Atlas back in the 80's. Wade Barrett does it in the Season 1 finale of WWE NXT. Hulk Hogan does it during his posing after the main event of the first WrestleMania. Ron Simmons (back when he was Faarooq) once intimidated an interviewer by simply looking bored and standing still and doing this. Norman Smiley did this a lot and it was treated as comical. Elektra, a valet from the real ECW, used to do this. Yeah, it was Fanservice. Ostensibly it was to intimidate the other valets, though, since she always claimed she was more woman than they were. See a few of these wrestlers' pec flexing abilities here. |

This happens a few times in Regular Show. Twice in "Rigby's Body", once by the bodybuilder that jumped into Rigby's body and again by Skips. His nipples light up. Mordecai gets one too when he daydreams in "Meat Your Maker". The episode "Bald Spot" features Muscle Man doing thisas a plot point. Specifically, he kept flexing his pecs (which translates in this case to jiggling his manboobs) throughout the entire episode in order to distract Starla from his bald spot on his head. Rigby does this after he gets buffed up in "One Pull Up". This also happens in two Cartoon Network bumpers of Regular Show where one's a fusion of Mordecai and Skips, and the other is two clips of "Rigby's Body" with Skips and "Meat Your Maker" with Mordecai when he daydreams back to back. |

Pokémon: Slaking's Diamond/Pearl animation has it Pec Flex. Of course, they don't necessarily have to be male.... Machoke in Crystal, too. And Machamp in Black/White. Once again, one out of four is female... Buzzwole in Sun/Moon is even more flex-happy than the above. It even starts flexing when hurt. Researchers in the Aether foundation theorize it has an entire language composed of different flexing poses. |

Punch-Out!!: Super Macho Man introduces himself before a fight with a Pec Flex. He also does it when Mac is knocked down. And when he wins...◊ He steps it up a notch in the Wii version by doing just this before the match, and turning around and flexing his ass at the screen too. | |

The Fairly OddParents!: There are two characters that do this. Juandissimo Magnifico, Wanda's ex-boyfriend, does this along with his constant magic shirt ripping. Also, in the Made-for-TV Movie Abra-Catastrophe, Cosmo gains massive pecs from a workout video, and he Pec Flexes to absorb Crocker's magic. Who could forget Jorgen Von Strangle, toughest fairy in the universe. He loves to flex his muscles in the faces of anyone he can. He even refers to them as another sentient being (ex: "My muscles and I are still laughing!" Muscles: "Ha...haha...ha!" |

One of the gags on Saturday Night Live were the faux bodybuilders, Hans and Franz, who did this, albeit with the help of a mechanical prosthesis in their costumes. Britney Spears is shown doing it during a sketch when she hosted. Like Hans & Franz, she had a device under her top to make them go up and down. Prior to this, during the lead up to the original WrestleMania, Hulk Hogan and Mr. T guest starred, often doing a Pec Flex, while all the while claiming that they weren't going to laugh during the show. Early on, they appeared in Billy Crystal's 'Fernaldo' skit, with Fernaldo gushing about the pecs. Then a comment by Crystal caused Mr. T to giggle for a moment, and as soon as he got a serious face back on, Crystal pointed out that his laugh caused his pecs to wiggle. Mr. T and Hogan lost it at that point. |
