id reccomend watching some mattessi or getting his book for gesture, its incredible

right now i think youre just trying to draw the contours of the gesture instead of thinking about the individual components which make the gesture; the weight and skeleton and flow of it. You seem to also draw one big line of action and try to fit everything to it, which can be a very limited mindset when youre doing this sort of drawing.
Think of the limbs as all being part of one big story, they lead into one another, they are families and relationships of energy that flow in and out of each other. it starts getting into poetry when we talk about gesture... its hard to explain in a logical way; but yea check that out and take it one day at a time thinking about how you can tell each quick story better than the last ;)
