Nice stuff dude!
I'm curious, why do you make so much of a point to draw the reverse curve of the shin in your gestures? I think it's breaking the flow of your drawings, I'd recommend trying to draw the legs as simple tube shapes, with only one bend throughout their length. A simple curve you can draw in only two lines will show the gesture much better than trying to draw in the muscles and contours.
Also, if you study the anatomy of the leg you'll find that the shin bones are straight, and maybe even a little convex. That apparent reverse curve of the leg is cause by the gastrocnemius muscle, not the structure of the leg. In my opinion, you'll get a better gesture by drawing the skeleton and structure of the body than if you focused on the musculature. save worrying about muscles for longer drawings.
