HAND POSITION FOR THE LATPULLDOWN by
Great visual here by my friend Brendon showing us the misconception of holding the hands out wide on a lat pulldown. Please read what he has to say down below!

"The saying: Wider grip, Wider Lats has led to many people only utilizing the wide grip. However, a study shows that a closer grip can actually result in a slightly higher activation in the lats (and higher bicep activation).
This does not mean that you should only use the closer grip. The wide grip is a great way to target the teres major, a muscle forgotten by many. Not developing the teres major can lead to a gap in your back physique."
