This video actually supports the argument that women should throw to a 10-foot target, just like men.
We traditionally scale loading by roughly 30% for women, and the numbers here align with that approach.

The funny thing is, I almost didn’t post this because I don’t necessarily agree with the conclusion. 😂

Here’s what this analysis doesn’t account for:
The velocity and acceleration of the ball.
Zoe releases earlier than me, her ball spends more time in the air. Her ball is projected farther through the air which requires more energy to do so. 

This is one possible explanation for why Colten Mertens was able to outperform Jayson Hopper during the 26.1 CrossFit Open announcement.

Colten’s ability to launch the ball earlier and begin his next repetition may have given him an advantage over an athlete spending more time squatting with the ball. Like a tall athlete (Hopper) 

Compound those small differences over 100+ repetitions, and they can create a substantial difference in total workout time.

Having your eyes down isn’t wrong, it just could be better. Getting your head through and eyes back takes strain off your traps and neck. It takes some practice.
