Core fundamentals, like beginner friendly perspective and basic construction (like Loomis). You can also learn those alongside making 'mindless' copies. Once you learn construction, mannequinization and basic artist anatomy you can do very basic analaysis of other figure drawings. Take the Reilly head for example. Once you understand the concept, you can start analyzing heads with it, giving it more form, indicating more than you can see or just understanding subtle plane changes. To learn this, it should be second nature for you to copy shapes and lines so you can focus on the harder parts in art.
Keep in mind that you shouldn't only copy artworks, but also photos with clear and contrasty lighting and draw what you see from life. Make very simple still lifes and do careful measuring (Keys to Drawing by Dodson e.xplains this well).
