The site isn't saving my descriptions, I originally asked if I was getting enough details in the 1 min studies?
Mr Moonshine
Honestly, your goal shouldn't be about getting the details, but rather understanding the shapes you're trying to draw. Thus far, this is a well-drawn study; it has good proportions, shape design, and simplification. However, in the proportions department, you should always make sure that the length of the body is 5 to 6 times the head. Hope this helps!

Thanks, appreciated, I think I phrased the question different originaly, but you've answered my question, thanks. 

In regards to heads and proportions, I've always had difficulty keeping the body in proportion, especially when the body is folded up, how do you keep track of how many heads? Plus I read 7 1/2 somewhere too which makes strings confusing haha

I think the amount of detail you're capturing in one minute is great! What you might like to think about is getting a bit more exaggeration in the poses. Exaggeration in the early stages will help your poses feel more lively and avoid your final drawings feeling stiff.
