Body composition and performance in swimming. https://t.co/AnwHA2Z79G
Some interesting findings:
1. Higher percentage of fat mass leads to LESS drag
2. More fat free mass was related to propulsive power (but not speed)

Kicking in swimming:
"the kicking action in front crawl has a positive effect on reducing the pressure drag acting on the trunk, thereby allowing swimmers to achieve a given velocity with less hand propulsive force"

Really interesting observations about what the legs are doing in freestyle. https://t.co/nFOyEm0dnh @SoheiWashino@OshoDayo@SwimmersFly
Improving/maintaining alignment may be the key role of the legs.
