yes they are the same but if the recipe calls for heavy whipping cream you dont necessarily have to whip it.

Heavy cream and whipping cream are almost the same thing – heavy cream contains 36-40% butterfat, while whipping cream contains 30-36% butterfat. They are equally interchangeable in recipes

Whipping cream also has a stabilzer in it that helps it stay whipped. You can substitute heavy cream and whipping cream in recipes but if you want to whip it you'll get better results with whipping cream.
