I gotcha, basically it sounds like a row with you elbows kept high. It thought it was something like that. This is good and bad. I'm thinking of your shoulders. It's good because you are not doing basically another row with your elbows low and the scapula depressed and retracted. It's bad because it involvels a rigid fix plane of motion. I wholeheartedly suggest you switch to face pulls instead if you want and exercise like this (which is a great idea, imo). The face pulls are done with a high or low pulley, seated or standing (I prefer standing) and with a rope attactment. It's still a machine, yes, but it allows a little more freedom of movement. You can also vary the angle of the elbows basically meaning you go to the neck, face or forehead. It think this will be much healthier for you.
