It really helped me to learn the weight distribution of a figure and trying to convey that balance with the flow of the gesture. Something like the pic is what I'm trying to learn how to do. Proko's gesture method is also useful.

Sycra's tutorials are actually pretty okay for beginners. That's the reason why he's so popular. There's also Proko, which is a better alternative.

When working with construction, try to break down the figure into its most basic shapes, like cylinders for the arms, boxes for the torso and pelvis connected with the spine. The point of construction is to understand the basic 3d volume. Your drawing does not have those 3d shapes. Best to learn how to draw boxes in 3d as well.

Next thing is how are your observational skills? Are you able to draw what you see fairly well? Have you drawn anything from life yet? Observational and copying skill are necessary for figure drawing.
