mixed grip pulldown from Fat Loss 1 NROL?

Has anyone tried the mixed grip pulldown? I get the idea, I think. The inside grip is close in and the outside grip is out wide. Is that right? It feels like the inside grip is doing all of the work and I'm guessing that is right as you switch for the next set. But I'm not sure. And for the third set, I do half the reps one way and the other half the other way. Any help would be appreciated.

Wrong forum....but since I"ve done both NROL and NROL4W.....Mixed grip means that one of your hands is over the bar and the other is under. For the next set, you switch so that the hand that was over the first time is now under and vice versa. Both hands are of equal distance as far as width goes.

so are they wide or narrow or doesn't it matter?
thanks !!

they're about around shoulder-width, given where you're most comfortable.
