The bicep heart is a pose where one bent arm and the opposite hand make the outline of a heart. It is a small, playful way to send someone a heart without doing the familiar two-handed heart in front of your chest.
How to do the bicep heart pose
- Raise one arm out to the side and bend it up. Keep your elbow and hand inside the frame.
- Bend that wrist downward so your fingers hook over the top.
- Curve the other hand into a “C” and touch its fingertips to the hooked hand. The heart sits just above the flexed bicep.
- Hold the pose for a moment before relaxing.

Filming it yourself
Use a fixed camera and a waist-up composition with room on both sides for your arms. Try the pose once before recording so you can see whether either hand leaves the frame.
If you film it yourself, the recording is free. You can add your chosen sound using the music tools in the app where you post it.
