You just draw a lot, and I mean a lot of people focusing only on anatomy and not on style clothes or other stuff. I started with making a pinboard with people modelling in for example ballet clothing cuz you can see the anatomy very well in it. Draw, ask feedback, then start a new drawing with the feedback focussing only on that part of the body. Make like 10 studies of it. As feedback again etcc @sage stump

Me personally,no just drew what I liked. I focused on drawing heads from all sorts of angles, then I attached the neck to those angles and kept drawing them. Then shoulders, then torsos, then more limbs etc. and just practiced drawing them a bunch over & over again. I'm giving this simple alternative of not like- looking at youtube art tutorials bcuz I personally get super bored & don't learn anything.
What helped me was also watching Sam does arts bcuz he occasionally explains what he is doing & why. Also watching tiktok art compilations on my free time you'll learn a thing or two. At the end of the day what matters most is patience

I think perspectives is really important before learning anatomy
