I think you should focus on each at a time, like Hampton -> Proko -> Eaton
Hampton breaks down complicated muscles into simple geometric forms so you can understand and draw them. I'd recommend focusing on that first. Then Proko, since he's talking a bit more about muscles and bones. Eaton is good for the final stage, when you wanna learn every detail, every muscle, but you don't need to know that much at first.
You need a lot more things like gesture, rhythm, proportions, shapes, symmetries and asymmetries, linework, curves vs straights and so on. All these build the lay-in, which you use as a base for your muscle details. It helps you stay within some boundaries when rendering, so you won't go nuts and push your figure into a blob like it happened to me so many times.
Yeah, I suggest posting everything you do because it helps getting better feedback. Also, it helps you identify the areas where you screwed up because you can constantly see the progress.
You have to find something that's fun for you in the lay-in stage. For me, it's the shape design, I just love finding those. Keeps me from getting bored and from jumping too fast into rendering.
