I've been trying out a site called Practise Drawing This for training on basic shapes and Line of Action for training on figures. Might be best finding one to stick with, but can anyone recommend any other art practise sites or resources? Am I best trying to speed draw the figures or dedicating a lot of time to each one?

I like those two more then SketchDaily, but there so many programs out there, I signed up for Proko beginners course, but I regret it. I think drawabox is pretty good, Also alot professional artist are on Youtube now, after covid stuff, and I go there if I wanna learn more things, I recommend Draw Sessions for youtuber, he does alot cool creature designs, but I think his wisdom is pretty inviting for people struggling.

Has for 2nd part of your question, I think getting things right first time and being slow will help alot more in long run, but it really comes down to learning style. You may find this video helpful https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NeYpBTtMok
sorry I am bad at explaining things but basically I think it comes down to what you enjoy more.

These are some figure drawing sites I use alongside line of action, but I think line of action is really useful.

You should try to get a copy of the Charles Bargue drawing course and try to reproduce drawings from it. Doing that was immensely useful for learning the figure when I was learning.

The bridgman figure books are also useful in the same way.

It depends on what you're trying to get out of your drawing time. Doing quick gesture drawings allows you to get the flow of figures and longer drawings let's you get more in depth with rendering of the figure. Line of action has a class mode and it's a pretty good mixture of short warm ups to longer drawing times.
 
Working graveyard shift on very relaxing night, just got glimpse of some kids doing graffiti making me envious of my younger days

I use a site called Quickposes that has a library of poses and an app that displays poses for a set amount of time, so that you can practice form/getting important details quickly.
 
One of my oldest digital portraits (2020). I got my first iPad that year and I really didn’t know what I was doing . I treated it like a piece of paper. One layer and one brush

I rarely ever draw people, nor do I often try to go for a more realistic look, but for some reason I felt the urge to sketch myself while I was in the middle of a totally different drawing, so I indulged myself using a photo of myself as reference. Not sure if it'd be risky or not to post the actual thing (I guess it's a bit vain of me to think that, since I'm implying it's so true to life that it's basically photorealistic?) but I don't wanna take any chances so I censored it. The sad part is: now it looks like a pooner art :(
