Figure drawing is all about anatomy (duh), but not just the proportions, i.e how long something is in relation to another, but also HOW and WHY some things are positioned the way they are. As far as construction, your biggest mistake is doing "line" drawing, it looks like you just drew the outline with 5% construction, called it a day and just shaded it. Pro tip, if your drawings don't carry weight and look anatomically correct in both proportion and space WITHOUT shading, you have to go back to the fundamentals.

The first semester or two at art school we were forbidden to use any kind of shading, you need to practice line weights and how it affects your drawing, thicker lines where there are harder objects (bones, bottom of feet, jaws etc.), and thinner lines where its softer.

Also, the closer an object is to you, the thicker the line, the farther away it is the softer.
