I believe it is exothermic energy...
Mechanical energy is changed to thermal energy. This is when you are rubbing your hands together to make heat.
Rubbing together of hands converts mechanical energy to heat energy.
It turns the kinetic energy (moving your hands) into heat energy due to moving your hands faster.
This is an example of mechanical friction creating thermal energy
by rubbing your hands together

rubbing your hands together on a cold day.
Yes it is considered heat energy
Yes, rubbing your hands together makes friction. This friction makes heat.
When we rub our hands, we use our body's energy to generate kinetic energy. This causes friction between our hands, which causes heat to be produced. Hence we feel warm.
Rubbing hands together creates friction, friction creates heat, so rubbing hands together in the winter may help keep them warm.
Rub your hands together and they feel warm, right? That's it, rubbing your hands is using mechanical energy, which is by friction then converted to thermal energy (heat).
