'I-flex mo lang' is the new 'Sana all.' It's when you post your new iPhone, your travel pics from La Union, or even your jowa on social media for the world to see and envy. It's the national sport of the 'blessed and grateful' crowd.
From English 'flex', meaning to show off one's muscles, which evolved into showing off anything of value.
Commonly used in social media contexts. Often used with the prefix 'i-' (i-flex) to mean 'to flex [something]'. It can be used for proud, non-arrogant sharing (e.g., 'flexing' one's parents) or for pure boasting.
