Ayo sup VZ here.

First of all, I really like your style, I think you can develop very beautiful gesture drawings if you keep practicing.

Now, my advice would be to work on the movement, I will quote a paragraph from the book figure drawing design and invention.

'' At an early stage of the gesture drawing, the focus will be on communicating an idea to a viewer or audience. To communicate an idea effectively, you want to start by distilling everything seen into only the essential qualities of the figure in front of you.

The lines most crucial to showing a figure are the C curve, the straight line, and the S curve. And, to keep the natural quality of the human form, we need the use of line that continually emphasizes visual ideas of balance and movement. Beginning with only a C or S curve, the main focus is on positioning one of the curve's apexes higher than the one that follows. Try asymmetrical use of lines, by keeping the high points of the curves slightly offset, the eyes are forced to move through them. This gives you the ability to have a great deal of control over where the viewer's eyes go and how quickly. This is one way of dealing with composition at a very early stage of drawing. ''

I hope this bit of information might be helpful for you, have a nice day

Hola muy buenas tardes, mi nombre es Antonio soy de Mexico y si me permiten puedo ayudar con la traduccion del sitio en español, si es que aun necesitan ayuda.

Hi Johnny!
Nice to see you again, I would like to begin with a small tip, for the photos try to look for a better spot because with the color of the pencil plus the light you can barely see the gesture drawings.

I would suggest trying and practice form and balance.
When developing a gesture drawing, it is important to be aware that you are describing the eight parts of the body

- Head - Pelvis
- Spine - Ribcage
- Arms - Legs

The essential elements you will describe using these eight parts include a sense of story and composition. Giving the pose a '' Sense of story '' means communicating a unique sense of positioning or attitude. Every person has a specific way of holding himself or herself when moving.
By exaggerating the ''Story,'' you give your viewer a compelling image to experience. When creating a gesture drawing, this involves developing your figures proportions and giving your figure a sense of balance and weight.

Keep practicing Johnny! you doing good!

First of all, let me tell you, you have good shading!

My advice would be to work more on the structure, I see some struggle with 3d form so practicing structure will help you a lot
here is a 10-minute video where Proko explains very well what I'm trying to say

I was looking at your work it looks amazing keep it up!

Hi, Namie nice to meet you!
Even doe I'm not an expert these tips from the Book Figure Draw Design and Invention, might help you as it helped me

1. Avoid the Symmetry, it closes off the form visually and does not allow for a flow between forms.

In order to keep the natural quality of the human form a constant in your drawings, you need a use of line that continually emphasizes visual ideas of balance and movement.
I recommend beginning with only a ''C'' or ''S'' curve, the main focus is on positioning one of the curve's apexes higher than the one that follows.

2. Try more Asymmetry in your gesture.

The Asymmetrical use of line is the main line used to be emphasized when developing a gesture drawing. By keeping the high points of the curves slightly offset, the eye is forced to move through them. This gives you the ability to have a great deal of control over where the viewer's eye goes and how quickly. This is one way of dealing with composition at a very early stage of drawing.

Keep the good job Namie!
