i also would recommed practicing gestures in website like,
posemaniac
lineofaction (this one got nudity on it though but you can turn it off or on if you want to.)
doing gestures in small durations is good exercise too, you can start at 1 min/pose for example and slowly turn it down to 30sec/pose.

#

side note : figure and gesture drawing is a little bit different,

gestures drawing is for capturing the action or flow of the pose and is usually faster.
meanwhile figure drawing is for getting the volume and proportions of the pose and is far more slower.

so, if you're asking someone "how to do x drawing" make sure to get it right or theyll be confused on what you're pointing or asking help for
