Focus more time on capturing the proportion of the head.

One other thing is respect the direction and the action of the foot it very important to anchor the figure and distribute the weight correctly(don't make a feet flat if it pointing to the ground on it toe. Take the time to capture where the head is rotation toward.

When you indicate the pectoral think about do we see the oblique or not don't simplify. Show the side of the head when you see the side of the head.

For the leg think outside of a cylinder when the knee is making a shift to one side or the other get the calf curvature.

Think of the weight distribution if a lot of the body weight is going to one direction you can deduct that the arm or limb will go further outside the center of mass to counter balance the weigth distribution. Same principle if they are wearing or using object that change the weight distribution. Just like a crane that need support when it moving weight.

You can get the form just by thinking about weight to a certain degree. Just like a sculptor who doesn't want is sculpture to fall over her add weight alternating from one side to the other in the same way when you add something be already thinking about what is the counter balance to that body part. So when you draw be aware of the ''unit'' you are drawing is it an arm a torso a head etc ask yourself is it twisting is it shifting to one side or the other is it bent is it extended is he resting the weight on a surface how is the floor affecting the weight dynamic.

Also think of the weight distribution in term of depth front foot vs back leg is the head in front of behind the torso where can you see overlapping form. The more overlapping the harder it is to determine the weight distribution.

Anyways i hope it was somewhat helpful.

Perfection is unmeasurable therefor it impossible to reach it.
