You're basically doing almost everything wrong, although in your favor I can say that there are many people who are doing worse all over the internet, but doing better than others is not doing well.

In none of those drawings it seems that you took measurements correctly because they wouldn't look so thin or over stylized (and if you did, you did it wrong), no matter how much you use cylinders you don't give them real depth, that's why they look flat even if you see traces of the ellipses (this is because you don't know how to draw well the basic forms in space).

No matter how long you've been looking at things related to human figure drawing if you can't apply them at the time of drawing. I know it hurts to be told by so many people at the same time, but it seems like you just didn't study things correctly. You have to try to understand what you are drawing, analyze the shapes and interpret them as if they were true three-dimensional forms and not just lines on a flat surface.

From the other drawings you posted it seems that you are not used to drawing freehand, which unfortunately means going back to learn how to see correctly and make your hand pay attention to you. For this I would tell you to watch Brent Eviston's basic drawing course (you don't have to pay for it, it's probably in the video course thread) and practice everything he tells you in the videos. Don't feel bad about having to do this, I've been drawing for many years and from time to time I always go over the fundamentals again.

Right now you should try to do something like the image I show you and then try to fill it in with basic forms. This is only the basis of the drawing, if you can't do this well you will never get the figures right. Try this and if you see that you can't do it well you will find something to practice. I recommend you this mainly for the proportion problem, because I think it's easier to correct some rigid poses than the measurement problems.
