I recommend...

So while on the topic of improving shortcomings I wanted to recommend a couple of figure pose books. To be honest when I first saw these books I thought they were ridiculous with all the poses and stuff but the more I looked at them and used it the more they came in handy. In fact I use them almost everyday when I'm drawing. They are great reference and include male and females poses, gun poses, sword poses, running, jumping, etc. I highly recommend all 3 of the, if it wasn't for these great reference books then I probably would not have been able to draw quicksilver running properly:
