Done as part of a 30 minute class.
My current goal is: Better understand human anatomy, so I can render imagined poses

Nice Job with the practice! can see the base construction of your Human.. well done there..
One suggestion - to increase the efficency of your practice - under time limit of 5 minute per sketch, do these
- Use gesture drawing, to add dynamism and capture energy of the pose (identify where the centre of mass of body is located)
- build over the top of gesture line drawing - using cylinder, cuboid shapes, avoid perfect creation of human shape.. just the basic build using shape
- and don't render / shade the body or background.. it will save more time

These are really great! The proportions and weight of the figures work really well! The only thing I could see is that it would be worth doing a couple of sessions just on hands, for gestures it's often not a bad idea to think of them as gloves instead of individual fingers. Great work!
i would recommend using a 4/6B pencil or a stick of charcoal to help get detail down faster & strengthen your mark-making.
keep it up!
