Some practice on figure drawing and some lighting that I did last year, here's the info I gave - Gesture drawings and value paintings from references I did over the week. Trying to get better at 3D form and better at constructing manikins from my gesture drawings. Attempted to do timed gesture drawings but those didn't go very well as I am not at that level yet. So I slowed down and focused on trying to get a better foundation before I worry about speed. I also attempted to make something on my own that wasn't just copying what I saw but that didn't go to well, mayhaps some other time. I'd say the references help out quite a bit and I did notice an improvement but I still have quite a ways to go.
