here i made some training routine that i think would help almost anyone become a profession manga artist is a short period of time. now this is a trainining for those who already understand how proportions look.
just a small review for those who dont
the close the object the bigger it gets, or when you look at the object from the bottom the closest line to you will be the farthest and the highest line will be the closest to you.

now to the main part

1. first you have to do 600 croquis drawings of different poses, humans or animals work together
here is some link you can try artists.pixelovely.com/practice-tools/figure-drawing/
to do this in 1 month you need to draw atleast 20 poses in a day or more

2.you want to take your drawing notebook and walk around the room and sketch 50 different items in different angles
should take you about from few hours to few days lol

3. if you want to make shonen manga with lots of action then your going to have to spend extra month drawing different fighting styles from other mangas and seeing how everything connects in the drawings
50-100 pages will be ideal

4. after learning mastering this you should feel much more confident on your drawings especially the arms parts, legs and body. but you still need to understand how to be a sucesfull manga artist and here are some tips from an action person who understands comic/manga art created by scott mccloud

also sorry i didnt had enough time to photoshop edit them just raw scanned from my book. you can download and edit it yourself if you want.
