This question has been coming up a lot.
Here's what I did:
For bodyweight exercises (pushups and the like) I always put in a zero. Your bodyweight may change and if you drop weight, it won't be an accurate measure of strength gain. If you do a bodyweight movement and add extra weight, put the extra weight in.
For something like a dumbbell chest press, I don't think it matters if you put in the combined weight of the two dumbbells or just one. Whichever you choose, be consistent.

Hello,
Well I took your advice and put in 0 but it doesn't seem to track in the excercise tracker. I also noticed that it was only tracking the excercises that I put in my dumbbell weights.So you need to put something in in order to use the progress tracker.

Hm.. odd... I'm sure I used to input a "0." Mind you, I haven't used the tracker in ages so things may have changed. In that instance, I would try a small number that it accepts and not body weight for the reasons I've stated above.
