Lat Pulldown variation

[TeenBuilding121]

Okay so Ive been researching around and cant find any exrcise for this variation of the lat pulldown I saw. It uses a bar the at the end has handles so your hands are perpendicular to the bar. (inside of your hands have eachother). It is a little more then shoulder width apart, and I have seen many people use it. Anyone know if the is more/ less benefitial? Or what part of the back it works?

The biggest difference is you are taking a neutral grip rather than a pronated grip. Whats going to make a difference in the muscles used (in your back that is) is the path of your elbows. Whether they are tucked, flared, low, high, ect.

My gym has this attatchment, it is pretty odd looking. I tried but I personally felt I could hit my lats more with regular bar.
