Smith Press?

For the purposes of tracking exercise, does a smith press (i.e., where you lift a barbell but it glides in tracks) count as "barbell free weights" or as "chest press machine"?

I'd put it down as a machine myself as its signifcantly inferior to the bench press; I'd swap it out for Incline chest press using dumbbells myself.0

Neither. I use jefit, and there is a smith bench listed in the exercise list.
But seriously, I really hope you're doing some other chest exercises besides that. I do inclines on the smith, but I also do bb and db work as well.0
