Anya's Punch: How Should We Handle This?

Okay, so I looked at Anya's page and saw this calc: https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:CloverDragon03/Spy_x_Family:_Anya_Punches_Damian

The 14.06 joules end was accepted but... When I punched my own gaming chair (the best weight-equivalent available in my room), which weighs 53 pounds, all I did was make it jostle. I had sincere doubts with the calc's accuracy after taking note of the fact that I, a 27-year-old dude, only made a 53-lb chair jostle with a punch. I was certain I needed more juice than like 10 foot-pounds to actually send the dang thing flying. So I tried calcing the feat myself (using what I knew) and got a rating of 224 joules. I wasn't sure if what I had in store was the correct method either.

So my question here is... What method should be used to determine the power of a punch that sends something flying?
 
We have values for sending people flying with a punch in the Common Feats page, but I'm not sure that it's for toddlers.
 
You can't Compare the average weight distribution in a chair to that of a human being
 
yeah that ain't gonna work that well unless you have a calc that can be evaluated. A punch isn't always gonna be super high, in fact, the average human punch probably doesn't go beyond 20 joules at full power unless you're a trained boxer.
