Hey dude. :) nice start.
Seeing these I would say to not spend too much time on doing much rendering / lighting of the muscles.
If you are studying from something that is shown like that maybe you can focus on your line work to get the accurate muscle shape / proportion, overlaps and placement first. For each muscle you can just draw a few contour lines to show form and a few down the length to show direction of fibres.
Definitely go back to your main reference after you do your imagination drawings and try and analyse where you went wrong. I would say you have exaggerated the serratus a little and the curve of the ribcage looks a bit too pronounced in general given the width of the chest. The chest muscles generally seem to be a bit on the small side for the torso size.
