the leg that's raised should be foreshortened more, idk how else to explain but rn its too long and our legs don't go to the side like that?

2 concepts:
Gravity balance
Remember which leg or limb is the centre of gravity, and where the body is being help up from, mark this with a dead straight line in a position like this.
Dynamic funk
Add lines to where you want the characters limbs to go or their body to lean to avoid a stiff character

Theres no visual weight distribution. If left the way it is, and someone were doing that irl they would have fallen over and smacked. You need to have it be more believable that they could be standing on one foot without falling over

I'm also just a beginner but I really want to appreciate that you're studying and asking what works and what doesn't work
It's always great to remember that meta studying your art is important

Good job getting better and continuously focusing on how to get even better
