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.engActive dragWater resistanceBiomechanicsAssisted swimmingResisted swimmingjournal article10.3389/fphys.2022.938658
