I did a anatomy tracing study of the trapezius and looking for critique. I am not the best at these but I hope I did good.

Hi @Mcfat 10, nice tracing! The anatomy looks pretty accurate😎👍
In your profile description it say that you're a beginner artist looking to improve your art. Anatomy studies are a lot of fun, but I don't think it's the thing that will have you improve your art the most. Anatomy is useful for drawing, but really only after you have pretty solid drawing skills. If you're really interested in anatomy, you can of course continue studying it, but if you're wondering where you should go to improve fast, I would say it would be to study drawing fundamentals.
I would highly recommend joining the Drawing Basics course. It seems like it's going to be a lot of fun and since it has just started, there is a chance that you can get feedback from Stan himself, if you keep up with the assignments. Another place to start is the Figure Drawing Fundamentals course.
It would be interesting to hear what your art goals are? What type of work do you want to create? Concept art? Animation? Illustration? Portraiture? If I know your goals I might be able to guide you better.
I've been giving a lot of thought to what my goals are the last few months, and it has really helped me study more efficiently, and use the skills I already have more succesfully.
Hope this helps :) Let me know if you have any questions!

How exactly do you work the robo-bean if the person is raising one clavicle?
You change the robo bean to make it make sense to you. Assign a landmark to a particular point of the torso box then build the rest from there. Personally I would just change the robo-bean to a form that makes the gesture read well (i.e. adding some kind of triangular prism for the shoulders or what I did below and make the torso box malleable).
The shoulder/neck area is a particularly complex area that will keep making you rethink how to tackle it so good luck.

Hey guys, quick question for anyone who can answer; When Proko is on the first two-minute pose and begins drawing the first leg, he mentions that: "Two c curves for the gesture of the leg from the front. Indicate the other side of the leg with somewhat parallel rhythm, considering the thickness of each part of the leg."
What does this mean, and how does he exactly find the gesture of that leg? Because I am confused.
Thanks!

I did these while I was at the doctor today. I really had a fun time doing them all. What are things I can continue to keep my mind on. So far I have found it easier to find the body first then other parts of the body. I used to bean technique though to easily find the torse. Thanks for all the critics in advance🥇🧨🥇
I would recommend exaggerating the poses and ask yourself what the pose is doing; what's the story?
See numbers: eight, six, and five; you can bend the pose down more to show what the pose is trying to do, show the stretching on one side, and compress on the other! You did a fine example for number two; that's pretty ebic stretching and squeeze you did.
At least, that's how I see it; I am no pro, so take it with a grain of salt. :p

Body language is vital for me; seeing asking myself what the pose is doing has helped improve my gesture drawings, at least, from what I am aware of, lol.
