In swimming, it is necessary to understand and identify the main
factors that are important to reduce active drag and, consequently, improve the
performance of swimmers. However, there is no up-to-date review in the
literature clarifying this topic. Thus, a systematic narrative review was performed
to update the body of knowledge on active drag in swimming through
numerical and experimental methods.
